Miki Howard - Release Me

Silly boy, what is up
With the way that you've been sneaking
Up behind me indiscreetly?
Tell me what have I done
To deserve this crazy treatment?
Got me havin' thoughts of leavin'

And I
Am not the kind of girl that would up and desert you
But I
Refuse to pay the price for the ones that've hurt you
Ooh, baby

Oh release me, oh set me free
I don't want this kind of love
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me
Take it back, I've had enough
Oh release me, oh set me free
I don't want this kind of love
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me
Take it back, I've had enough

Tell me why be suspicious
Of the company I'm keeping?
So you're having trouble sleeping?
Isn't love built on trust?
That's the very thing we're missing
Honey baby, won't you listen?

And I
Am not the kind of girl that would up and desert you
And I
Refuse to pay the price for the ones that've hurt you

Oh release me, oh set me free
I don't want this kind of love
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me
Take it back, I've had enough
Oh release me, oh set me free
I don't want this kind of love
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me
Take it back, I've had enough

Baby, how you gon' treat me
Tippin' on me indiscreetly?
If you really don't need me
Baby, baby, set me free
So you're having trouble sleeping?
And I've been having thoughts of leaving
I don't deserve this crazy treatment
Baby, baby, release me

Why you wanna do me like this?
All your games and your tricks
I ain't with it
What's up with that?
Now you say you want to play
Well, it's got to be my way
You better get your gat out
'Cause the girl's from the hood yeah, I am that, oh

Oh release me, oh set me free
I don't want this kind of love
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me
Take it back, I've had enough
Oh release me, oh set me free (you gotta set me free)
I really don't want it, babe
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me
Take it back, I've had enough

Oh release me, oh set me free (set me free now)
I don't want it, uh, really can't use it, baby
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me
Take it back, I've had enough of you, ooh
Oh release me, oh set me free
Oh, release me, oh set me free
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me

Oh release me, oh set me free
I don't want this kind of love
If that's the way it has to be, if that's the love you have for me (if it's got to be)
I don't want it
