美國實力歌姬［娜妲莉高］＋唱將［比柏布萊森］──靈魂放克／迪斯可──［Gimme Some Time／給我一些時間］

Written by Natalie Cole
Gimme some time, Baby
I know youre thinking that Im playing
But Im saying that I wouldnt hurt you for the world, oh no
Im not so blind, Baby
I need your lovin and you know it (yes, I do, well) cause Ill show it, well
I dont wanna be hurt you
If you want me to Ill keep it a secret
But please let me get through your door
Cause I guarantee that once we get started
Youll soon be begging for more
We want the whole world to know that we are one
So why dont you gimme some time, Baby
Lets take advantage not for granted for the good things
(We got for the good thangs)
I dont want to be hurt you
You just be kind, Baby
Weve got a good thing and I know it, lets not blow it, oh
Cause I wouldnt hurt you for the world, Im serious
I believe you think that I havent noticed
The look in your eyes when you smile
And my senses tell me theres something missing
So please let me stay for a little while
I want the whole world to know that we are one
We got it together, Baby, were one
So why dont you gimme some time, Baby
I know youre thinking that Im playing
But all Im saying
Cause I wouldnt hurt you for the world, Im serious
Gimme some time, Baby, gimme some time, Baby
I, I know, you know, I know you love me
And I thank that you thank that we should be together
So why, why, why dont you gimme some of your time
Hey, thats all I need, thats all I want
Gimme just a little hour, just some more time
Yeah, you better gimme some time
Oh, you better gimme some time
