I MADE A RESOLUTION
AND A PLAN TO DO MY WORK
BUT I NEED YOU TO MAKE IT WORK
YOU'VE GOT TO READ THE MESSAGE
UNDERSTAND WHAT'S ON MY MIND
CAUSE NOT TO SEE WOULD BE A CRIME
AND WE COULD LOOSE IT ANYTIME

[CHORUS]
WE'VE GOT TO SHOW SOME RESPECT
WE'VE GOT TO LEARN TO PROTECT
DON'T TAKE IT FOR GRANTED I KNOW
THAT IF YOU WANT TO STAY CLOSE
WE'VE GOT TO SHOW SOME RESPECT

BUT I BELIEVE IN WORKING
THEN I BELIEVE IN A LITTLE HELP
CAUSE I'M NOT LIGHT UNTO MYSELF
WITHOUT A THING OF VALUE
WHY SETTLE FOR SECOND BEST
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S UP AHEAD
WE CAN'T LET OURSELVES FORGET

[CHORUS]

FOR THE THINGS THAT I LOVE ABOUT YOU
FROM THE WOMAN THAT YOU SEE INSIDE
DON'T LET IT WALK OUT THE DOOR
LOVE FOLLOWS EVERY TIME

[CHORUS]
