Dead Giveaway (12" Mix)

How long you gonna carry on

This one-on-one charade?

Let's don't, and then say we did

That's the game you like to play

Ooh, we've been through this so many times

The end result's always the same

I always end up complaining when I've got myself to blame

You're just a dead giveaway, yeah

You'd think I'd learn to handle this by now

You're just a dead giveaway (dead giveaway)

Girl, you can't deny it (even though you try) oh, oh

You keep trying to hide it (baby, we know why)

I get a call about 2 a.m. saying you don't wanna be alone

I'm tired and half asleep

But emotions are just a little too strong

Ooh, I figured that I'd call your bluff

'Cause you want me to come on by

Girl, you know it's your love I've always wanted

But this time I won't be denied

'Cause you're a dead giveaway, hey

You want me like I want you

You're just a dead giveaway (dead giveaway)

You're scared, but you won't admit it (even though you try), ooh, yeah

But tonight you're committed (baby, we know why)

'Cause you're just a dead giveaway

A dead giveaway

You're not that naive, girl (I'm finding out) ooh, ooh

Is playing deceiver (what you're all about?)

Dead giveaway

Dead giveaway

Girl, you can't deny it (even though you try), ooh, ooh, baby

You keep trying to hide it (baby, we know why)

Well, now that you're serious

It's time to take off that disguise

You want the mental stimulation

I can see it in your eyes, ooh

For years, I've been your analyst

I've been as patient as I've been kind

For years, you've played off believing

That I want you for only your mind

You're just a dead giveaway

Girl, you want me like I want you

Dead giveaway (dead giveaway)

(Dead giveaway) you've been holding back for too long

You're a dead giveaway (dead giveaway)

You're scared, but you won't admit it (even though you try) ooh, oh
