THINGS YOU SAY
JUST WHITNEY...

Oh baby, baby
Oh baby
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Such a pleasure loving you
It's all mine
I smile each day I wake
I feel better knowing you
Ooh you've got me thinking
It's better to give than take
I don't have to beg you to
You're so good to me
Carries me from day to day
I appreciate the things you do

Ooh but there's one thing
I had to tell you boy
I dig your actions
But I love the things you say

I listen to the things you say
Things you say
Ooh you're calling me oh-wow, oh-wow
I listen to the things you say to me baby
In a poem or a card
Serenade my heart

I listen to the things you say
ooh you're calling me oh-wow, oh-wow
I listen to the things you say to me baby
In a card or a song
Serenade me
 
Lovely letters come from you
At times I know I don't deserve it
Any weather, you'll come through
Ooh you've got me gleaming
I feel more than I'm worth
You're my treasure
I'll take you over anything
That's pleasing on this earth
I appreciate the things you do
But there's one thing
I had to tell you
I dig your actions
but I love your words

I listen to the things you say
To the things you say
Ooh you're calling me oh-wow, oh-wow
I listen to the things you say
Things you say boy
To me baby
In a poem or a card
Serenade my heart

I listen to the things you say
Things you say
ooh you're calling me
Calling me
Oh-wow, oh-wow
I listen to the things you say to me baby
In a card or a song
Serenade me

Every word that you say
makes the day much brighter
(sweet to my heart)
Melody that you play
I hear right away
and my heart is lighter
(sweet to my heart)
Sweet to my heart, boy, ooh I

I listen to the things you say
I listen to the things you say
Ooh you're calling me
Ooh, you're calling me, oh-wow, oh-wow
I listen to the things you say
To me baby
In a poem (in a poem) or a card (or a card)
Serenade my heart (serenade my heart)

To be baby
In a card or a song
