I Know How (To Make You Love Me) - Nia Peeples, Kurtis Blow

Yeah

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out the door

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out for sure

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out the door

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out for sure

I remember my mama’s words

She said

Don’t you let him

Get to your head

Well I remember

But baby I was falling in

Where there’s a fire

Got to jump right in

When I was standing

Outside your door

You couldn’t wait to get

Me back in for more

But now I’m here

And giving all the love I have

But you’re not giving it back

Yeah

I had the feeling something wasn’t right

Yeah

You’re gonna feel it all alone tonight, boy

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out the door

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out for sure

You do me wrong

Everybody knows you say

Hey baby

That’s the way it goes

You think you’re bad

So bad when we’re all alone

I wanna hear it

When you’re on your own

Yeah

I’m gonna lay it to you on the line

Yeah

You’re gonna miss your water when your well runs dry, boy

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out the door

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out for sure

You’re packing your bags up

I know you’re leaving me

What can I tell you now?

You don’t believe me

I’ve seen you crying

So I’ve been trying to keep you in my arms

Don’t think I’m lying, girl

I want to be with you like nobody can

'Cause I feel for you

I want to be your man

I’m not in it for taking and the giving

'Cause I love you

That’s why I’m living, girl

Yeah

I’m gonna lay it to you on the line

Yeah

You’re gonna miss your water when your well runs dry, boy

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out the door

I know how to make you love me, baby

I’m walking out for sure
