DON'T YOU DESERVE SOMEONE
(Babyface / Antonio "La Reid" Reid / Daryl Simmons)

Jermaine Jackson


So maybe things did not work out this time
Baby don't blame it on yourself
Maybe the guy you choose is not quite right
And that's not an easy thing to tell
So don't cry don't take it quite so hard
It's truly not he end of your world
It's not impossible, you'll find true love again
You gotta open up your heart to know

Don't you deserve someone, baby
Don't you deserve true love
Don't you deserve a chance at true romance
Baby come take a chance with me

Baby the love you lost was not your type
So you got to get him out your head
Baby, baby, baby
Love is a gamble but it can be so nice
So put all your crazy thoughts to bed
So don't try, it's really not that hard to open up yourself to me girl
It's more than possible you'll fall in love again
It's time to open up your heart for love

Don't you deserve someone, baby
Don't you deserve true love
Don't you deserve a chance at true romance
Baby come take a chance with me

I gotta be the one you want
I gotta be the one you need
I gotta be the one you're looking for
Don't you deserve a chance
At true romance
Baby come take a chance with me

Baby don't blame yourself
How could you really tell
Baby don't take it quite so hard
Lay all your thoughts to bed
Get tehm all out your head

I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear
I love you so good
I should be the one you love

Don't you deserve a chance
At true romance
Baby come take a chance with me
