Don't give it up, what you possess is special
No need to rush, tell him how you feel
He'll wait awhile, what is meant to be will be
So don't give it up, don't give it up
It's so easy to find a man
But it ain't easy to find real love
She's been searching all her 15 years
And now she's found it, but she's so scared, yeah
He wants to go faster, faster
She wants to just slow it down
He wants to go further, further
Let me break it down
Don't give it up (yeah), what you possess is special (oh)
No need to rush, tell him how you feel (tell him how you feel)
He'll wait awhile, what is meant to be will be
(Ooh, don't) so don't give it up, don't give it up
See you're so young lady, got your life in front of you
I know you love that boy, but a real man deserves you
And he ain't real, and maybe he's not the one
If he don't understand how you feel
He says if you love me, love me
Why won't you just do it now?
She says she ain't ready, ready, oh
Sister, listen now
Don't give it up (don't give it up), what you possess is special (no, no)
No need to rush (ooh, baby), tell him how you feel
He'll wait awhile (he will wait awhile), what is meant to be will be
So don't give it up, don't give it up
See there's so much for her to be thinking about (thinking about)
But all she sees is her man
True love lasts more than one night
You will know the perfect time
So wait 'til you're ready
Don't give it up, what you possess is special (wait 'til you're ready)
No need to rush, tell him how you feel (baby, wait 'til you're ready)
He'll wait awhile, what is meant to be will be (wait 'til you're ready)
So don't give it up (yeah), don't give it up
Let the beat roll on and on and on (until you're ready)
Let the beat roll on and on and on (until you're ready)
And the beat goes on and on and on (until you're ready)
Let the beat go on and on and on
Until you're ready, baby
Until you're ready
