[Intro]
Respect to all the man out there
Love outstanding
Why don't you tell me you love me no more
Baby, I need to know eh
[Verse 1]
Why you no dey tell me say you love me oh boy
I know you do but I just can't know
Cause I really want to be with you and you already know
But you gotta let this love glow
And if you really love me, you should back it up and let it show
You gotta let this love grow
Don't go far from me
[Chorus]
Why... why you no dey tell me the truth
Tell me what is wrong with you
Why... why you no dey tell me the truth
Tell me what is wrong with you
Why... why you no dey tell me the truth
Tell me what is wrong with you
[Verse 2]
Why you no dey tell me why you always on the low
I know you do but I just can't know
Cause I really want to be with you and you already know
But you gotta let this love glow
And if you really love me, you should back it up and let it show
You gotta let this love grow
Don't go far from me
[Outro]
Don't go far from me
Respect to all the man out there
Love outstanding
Why don't you tell me you love me no more
Baby, I need to know eh
