Gotta get these thoughts off my mind,
Gotta get them off my mind,
I need them off my mind, mi---nd
See they've just got me wondering why,
Wondering why, why, why, why?
Father, all I'm asking for is four minutes of your time,
To sing a few words that's been plaguing my mind,
See I don't have a problem with the way my life's been going,
But I have thoughts and it's you I should be telling,
You've given me five children by two different women,
And I'll always love 'em both but I'm still searching,
'coz I haven't yet found my wife sent to me from heaven,
And this is what I'm wondering, yeah
Is there a woman out there,
To truly love me and show me care?
I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in love,
What good is the world to me,
If it ain't got a wife for me?
When all I really wanna be is just a man in love
Listen,
I don't live for myself but they don't understand,
'coz you've gave me this gift to sing throughout the land,
I know they're only women and I should show compassion,
But they never stick around and wait for that to happen,
All they see is that I'm all around the world,
Thinking every country I'd have a different girl,
Sometimes I say to myself why is she doing this to me,
Why's she tryna bring me misery?
So is there a woman out there,
To truly love me and show me care?
I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in love,
What good is the world to me,
If it ain't got a wife for me?
When all I really wanna be is just a man in love
Uh,
I wonder why all my tries can never add up,
To say bye bye all those times,
Yo I had enough,
To see my pride go down the drain,
And have to get up,
Lord made me a man and I'm worthy of love so,
Being ungrateful is the last thing I could ever think of doing,
Acheiving my dreams and giving my children a future is all your doing,
But true love I'm searching for to be complete,
Father send me someone 'coz I'ma patiently wait
So is there a woman out there,
To truly love me and show me care?
I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in love
What good is the world to me.
If it ain't got a wife for me?
When all I really wanna be is just a man in love?
Tell me Father,
Is there a woman out there,
To truly love me and show me care?
I've tried two times but I'm still yet not a man in love,
What good is the world to me,
If it ain't got a wife for me?
When all I really wanna be is just a man in love!
