[Verse 1]
Take it from me
You're gonna be in love
Just give yourself some time
You're in a shaky frame of mind
Take it from me
That everyone's not that way
Just out to break your heart
So baby, don't fall apart

[Chorus]
I know that it hurts sometimes (Hurts sometimes)
But girl, if you let me ride (Let me ride)
I'll make you feel the way you want
I'll make you feel like you're in love
Don't want you to compromise (Compromise)
We can just take our time
Whatever makes you feel you're loved (Oh yeah)
That's all I want

[Verse 2]
Take it from me
You're gonna love someone (You're gonna love someone)
I can see it in your eyes (See it in your eyes)
Somebody's gotta treat you right (Gotta treat you right)
Take it from me (Take it from me)
Your life is bound to change
He'll never ever break your heart
And you'll never have to feel the pain, no
[Chorus]
I know that it hurts sometimes (Hurts sometimes)
But girl, if you let me ride (Let me ride)
I'll make you feel the way you want
(Feel the way you want, babe)
I'll make you feel like you're in love
Don't want you to compromise (Compromise)
We can just take our time
Whatever makes you feel you're loved (Oh yeah)
That's all I want

[Bridge]
You have this tendency to blame things on yourself, well, well
Has it not occurred to you that it may be someone else
There is an urgency to change the way you feel
I'm here to make a way for you
You're not by yourself

[Chorus]
I know that it hurts sometimes (Hurts sometimes)
But girl, if you let me ride (Let me ride)
I'll make you feel the way you want
I'll make you feel like you're in love
Don't want you to compromise (Compromise)
(Don't you compromise)
We can just take our time
Whatever makes you feel you're loved (Oh yeah)
That's all I want
[Outro]
I know that it hurts sometimes (Hurts sometimes)
But girl, if you let me ride (Let me ride)
I'll make you feel the way you want (Well, well, baby)
I'll make you feel like you're in love
Don't want you to compromise (Compromise)
We can just take our time
Whatever makes you feel you're loved (Yeah)
That's all I want

I know that it hurts sometimes (Hurts sometimes)
But girl, if you let me ride (Let me ride)
I'll make you feel the way you want (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'll make you feel like you're in love
Don't want you to compromise (Compromise)
We can just take our time (We can take our time)
Whatever makes you feel you're loved (Yeah, yeah)
That's all I want (That's all, that's all I want)
