Don't Know What To Tell Ya Lyrics


Aaliyah Don't Know What To Tell Ya

Hey
Yay, Hey, Yea
Uhhh, Oh


If you wanna handcuff me
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want my intimacy
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want a wall around me
I swear I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want my lock and my key
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)


Incarceration
Is what I'm facin
When I'm wit' you
You're watchin my every move
Tryin to pick up on some clues
We play 20 questions
Every time I walk in or out the door
What do you bother for (What do you bother for)
It's getting out of control


It's gonna take 
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
It's gonna take (It's gonna take, Take) 
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
Crackin' (Crackin')


Stress ain't a second guess
And then time and time again
We go from lovers back to friends
We got to put this to an end 


If you wanna handcuff me
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want my intimacy
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want a wall around me
I swear I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want my lock and my key
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)


Your justifications
For your actions
Should have been some other lifetime
Don't compare me to your last one
I can't help if she was a fast one, a sassy one
I'm a classy one
I can't keep you from getting ?? hon
Seems like that should make you happy huh?


It's gonna take (It's gonna take)
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
It's gonna take (It's gonna take, Take) 
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
Crackin' (Crackin')


I can't deny or lie
I've tried to put up wit you
These insecurities everyday
Pushin' my love away, Hey


If you wanna handcuff me
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want my intimacy
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want a wall around me
I swear I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
If you want my lock and my key
Well yo I don't know what to tell ya (Don't know what to tell ya)
---Repeat---


It's gonna take (It's gonna take)
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
It's gonna take (It's gonna take, Take) 
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
It's gonna take (It's gonna take)
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
It's gonna take (It's gonna take, Take) 
T-R-U-S-T to keep our L-O-V-E
Crackin' (Crackin')
