Hey lil' baby, come over here
Got something that I want you to hear
Not so sure how to ask you
Hoping that my words are clear

You know it's been a few weeks
Now we've been holding in
Now I'm safe to save you for me
And I'm for you too, girl

So if you don't mind
I would like to take some time
To ask you (to ask you)
Oh, to ask you

So if you don't mind
I would like to take some time
To ask you (to ask you)
Oh, to ask you to be my girl
My girl, my girl, my girl

To be my girl means
Never having to want to escape reality
'Cause it's safe right here with me
And for me to be your man
Trust that I will understand
What it means to show respect

So if you don't mind
I would like to take some time
To ask you (take some time to)
Oh, to ask you

So if you don't mind
I would like to take some time
To ask you (to ask you)
Oh, to ask you to be my girl
My girl, my girl, my girl
