Baby, as the time goes by
I can only stop and wonder
Why do I care
For the love that we shared?
Once before, but not again
I won't put up with all your pretend anymore
Like I did before

Now I know
I just can't go on this way anymore
So take your time
Tell me how you feel
And show me that it's real this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time) this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time)

Every day and through the night
Do you wanna hold me
For the rest of your life
Until the end of the time?
Tell me what you want from me
Is it love just a fantasy
That you want, to take all I got?

Now I know
I want you back in my arms back again
So take your time
I need you even more
Don't let love walk out the door this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time) this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time) this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time) this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time)

Now I know
I just can't go on this way anymore
So take your time
Tell me how you feel
And show me that it's real this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time) this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time) this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time) this time

(You've gotta prove your love)
You gotta prove your love to me
(This time)

(You've gotta prove your love this time)
(You've gotta prove your love this time)
