Straight Up Lyrics

Paula Abdul

Chorus:
Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever oh oh oh
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together oh oh oh
Are you just having fun

Lost in a dream
Don't know which way to go
If you are all that you seem
Then baby I'm movin' way too slow

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
How about some information - please

Chorus

Time's standing still
Waiting for some small clue
I keep getting chills
When I think your love is true

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
How about some information - please

Chorus

Straight up now tell me (tell me)
Straight up now tell me (tell me)
Straight up now tell me, straight up now tell me

Chorus (4x fade out)
