Don't Fight It Lyrics
Shanice
Dallas Austin]: (Shanice):
Yeah, don't matter, just don't fight it (ooh)
Don't matter, just don't fight it (yeah)
Yeah, don't matter, just don't fight it (yeah)
Don't matter, just don't fight it, come on
[Shanice]:
I've been in need of some affection
How did I end up in your direction?
You're still friends with my ex-boyfriend
I don't know if I was wrong to pretend
That I never thought of you and me as getting it on
Just so happens that I'm still all alone
Know that I've turned you down before
But I wont turn you down no more, baby
1 - If you check me out
You can let me know
I'm not gonna fight it if my heart says so
If you wanna put it down
Baby you should know
I'm not gonna fight it no more
Repeat 1
I've been thinking 'bout your attention
Ever since the day you began to mention
That you wanted me oh so very long
Never really knew you were feeling that strong
It could be confusion with you and your boy
Far as I'm concerned I ain't there no more
My love it's been enough time
When I can't get you off my mind
Repeat 1 (2x)
I never thought it would ever be real
Can't stop thinking bout the way I feel boy
Never thought of it as right before
But I can't let him keep me unhappy no more
Didn't think it would happen to me
Making a decision over history
Is it wrong to be into you?
What am I supposed to do
And he's not thinking 'bout me baby
[Dallas Austin]: (Shanice):
Don' fight it
Yeah don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
Don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
Yeah don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
Don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
Yeah don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
Don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
Yeah don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
Don't matter just don't fight it (ooh)
[Shanice]:
