Gotta get these thoughts off my mind
Gotta get them off my mind
I need them off my mind, mind

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
'Cause 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
'Cause 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
Achieving 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 'cause I'mma patiently wait

So is there a woman out there (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
