Tell Me What You Want Me to Do Lyrics

Oh baby, girl, baby, yeah yeah
I love you girl
You called me up and I came to see you
You say you've been awake all night When light goes down, I see no reason
For you to cry. We've been through this before

In every time, in every season
God knows I've tried
So please don't ask for more.

Can't you see it in my eyes
This might be our last goodbye
Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend
Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again
I read your mind, with no intentions
Of being unkind, I wish I could explain

It all takes time, a whole lot of patience
If it's a crime, how come I feel no pain.
Can't you see it in my eyes
This might be our last goodbye
Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend
Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again

Can't you see it in my eyes
This might be our last goodbye
Carrie, Carrie, things they change
things they change

Carrie, Carrie, Carrie

Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again
or somewhere again
when lights go down

It hurts me deep inside when I see you cryin'
Whatever's wrong I'll make it right
If you understand how I feel
You should know that my love is real, oh

Tell me what you want me to do
My love is always here for you, oh
Tell me what you want me to do
My love is always here for you
So tell me what you want me to do
Tell me girl
There were times that I didn't show it
Just how much I care for you, I'm so sorry
Now don't keep sayin', "It's too late to think it over", my baby
After all that we've been through
Girl, I'm beggin' you, I'm down on my knees
Don't walk away, baby please don't leave me now
Tell me what you want me to do, oh
My love is always here for you, oh
Tell me what you want me to do, oh
My love is always here for you
So tell me what you want me to do, oh baby yeah
Girl I know that we can work it out somehow
Isn't that what love's all about
I'm gonna be by your side, we're gonna see it through this time
I won't let you slip away, say you'll stay with me
Stay with me girl
'Cause you're the finest girl that I've ever seen
Tell me, tell me what you want me to do, baby
My love is always here for you and only you, oh
Tell me what you want me to do
My love is always here for you
So tell me what you want me to do, yeah yeah yeah
So tell me what you want me to do, yeah
Tell me girl

Tevin Jermod Campbell (born November 12, 1976) is a five-time Grammy-nominated American R&B singer-songwriter. Campbell scored a string of R&B chart hits as a teenager in the early to mid-1990s. Campbell transitioned from child singer to adult R&B crooner, and is a recognizable figure in the New Jack Swing genre of music.

Born in Dallas, Texas, Campbell was introduced to the R&B by Quincy Jones in August 1989. Campbell's debut single was "Tomorrow (A Better You Better Me)" which reached number 1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip hop Singles chart in June 1990. It was the lead single from Quincy Jones' critically acclaimed ensemble LP Back on the Block which won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1991. After working with Jones and writers and producers including Siedah Garrett, Campbell worked with producers Narada Michael Walden, Al B. Sure, Babyface, and others to record additional music.

Campbell's first solo hit was "Round and Round", which charted at #3 on R&B charts in November 1991 and #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 1991 was produced by Prince and was featured in Prince's film Graffiti Bridge. Campbell followed the success of his first two singles by releasing his debut album, T.E.V.I.N., in November 1991 which featured the R&B hit singles and Campbell's only #1 Adult Contemporary hit: "Tell Me What You Want Me To Do" followed by:, "Alone With You", and "Goodbye". His second album, I'm Ready released October 1993, yielded the #1 R&B hit and #9 pop single "Can We Talk" in December 1993, "I'm Ready", "Always in My Heart" which charted at #3 on the R&B chart. He also scored a Top 30 hit with "Don't Say Goodbye Girl" on the R&B charts. In September 1994, Campbell also scored an R&B hit with the single "U Will Know" as part of the R&B supergroup Black Men United, a group that also included singer Usher.

The year 1996 saw the release of his third album, Back to the World (#11 R&B). The title track was a success (hitting the R&B Top 20), but additional singles failed to make an impact on the chart. His early 1999 self-titled album was found Campbell venturing into the neo-soul venue. The project was rushed, and as a result charted below the R&B Top 30, with only one single charting, a Top 30 song called "Another Way".

Campbell was nominated for five Grammy Awards and two American Music Awards.

In December 2005, Campbell made his Broadway debut in the role of Seaweed J. Stubbs in the hit musical Hairspray. Campbell is currently still playing in Hairspray.

Campbell returned to the studios in 2006, working with producers Scott Storch, The Underdogs, Krucial Keys, Bryan Michael Cox, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, and Ryan Leslie. The comeback album is waiting to be published and will be released in 2008. Read more on Last.fm.
