I’ve Got To Be

A drunk mind speaks a sober heart

But this ain’t no hit and run,

‘I’ve got to be,

Oh yeah I’ve got to be,

Number-One!

A sad day makes you feel like kissing me,

But this ain’t no hit and run,

‘I’ve got to be,

Oh yeah I’ve got to be,

Number-One!

Chase me down the block and I might laugh,

But this ain’t no hit and run,

‘I’ve got to be,

Oh yeah I’ve got to be,

Number-One!

He Wants- to be, my only one,

without making mE, his only one.

Boy I tell you, this ain’t no hit and run-

I’ve got to be,

Number-One!

Baby, don't hand me tomorrow

If today you're holding back.

I've seen sparks that burned out easy,

Heard sweet words that lost their sound.

I shall explain,

If you're asking for forever,

Plant your feet on solid ground.

‘I’ve got to be,

Oh yeah I’ve got to be,

Number-One!

If you're gonna call me yours,
Don't whisper it behind closed doors.


Love me with the morning sun,
Not only when the day's undone.

Mhmm

I don't need a pocket full of pretty lines,
I need a love that keeps good time.

Mhmm

Is it much too late,
'Cause I won't settle halfway.

I've got to be,
Oh, I've got to be,
Number-One.

A heart knows when it's being borrowed,
And mine won't live on borrowed time.
If we're writing out this story,
Let every page say you were mine.

No chasing shadows,
No changing names.
I'm looking for a steady flame.

So when you reach for me,
Reach with your whole soul.
That's the kind of love
That never grows old.

Outro

This ain't no hit and run,
No passing phase beneath the sun.

Number-One!

I've got to be...
Oh, I've got to be...

Number-One.

It’s too late for you and me,

It’s too late for you and I,

Much too late for me to cry,

It’s too late for you and me,

It’s too late for you and I,

Much too late for me to cry baby,

Aww we tried,

God knows we tried,

now it’s too late-

Aww to say that we can be more,

I’m sorry I’m not looking for love,

Now it’s too late-

It’s too late for you and me,

It’s too late for you and I,

Much too late for me to cry,

It’s too late for you and me,

It’s too late for you and I,

Much too late for me to cry,

Awww…

Aww just bend your knee,

Please let down your guard,

Let me in…
