Babyface - I Need A Love Song lyrics

Back in the day when I was younger
I fell in love about every summer
And I would be calling up the radio
To dedicate my favorite song to her
And I sung along with everything
The words in the song, they spoke to me
Now I need to know, where did the music go
Cause my heart is crying out

I need a love song, about now
Don't need no ring tone, songs now
Please tell the DJ, slow it down
I wanna think about my baby now
I want a old school type of slow jam
You know the kind that really used to romance
When Luther used to sing like 'baby'
And Michael made the world go crazy
I need a twelve play, two step, Kelly kinda record (Oh)
I need a love song right now

(Ooh C'mon, c'mon, c'mon)

Back in the day when I got older
The music in me had taken over
So I wrote the songs that made the lovers dance
Like "I'll Make Love" and "Breathe Again"
Now I want to know, where love has been
It's just not the same, as it was back then
And the world needs to fall in love again
Cause my heart is crying out

I need a love song, about now
Don't need no ring tone, songs now
Please tell the DJ, slow it down
I wanna think about my baby now
I want a old school type of slow jam
You know the kind that really used to romance
When Luther used to sing like 'baby'
And Michael made the world go crazy
I need a twelve play, two step, Kelly kinda record (Oh)
I need a love song right now

And remember when we used to slow grind
Everybody used to electric-slide
We'd be partying the whole night
And then we took it home, oh baby
Rock the boat to the radio, don't ya' know, I miss it all right now
Cause my heart is crying out

(X2)

I need a love song, about now
Don't need no ring tone, songs now
Please tell the DJ, slow it down
I wanna think about my baby now
I want a old school type of slow jam
You know the kind that really used to romance
When Luther used to sing like 'baby'
And Michael made the world go crazy
I need a twelve play, two step, Kelly kinda record (Oh)
I need a love song right now

I need a love song
Please tell the DJ
I need a love song
Please tell the DJ
