The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
  I'm gonna be your number one
  I'm not the kinda guy who gives up
  Just like that - oh no
    It's not the things you do that
  Tease and hurt me bad - Who who who
  But it's the way you do the things you do to me
  I'm not the kinda guy who gives up just like that - oh no
    [Chorus:]
  The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
  I'm gonna be your number one
  Number one - number one
  The tide is high but I'm movin' on
  I'm gonna be your number one
  Number one - number one
    Every boy wants you to be his girl
  But I'll wait my dear till it's my turn
  I'm not the kinda guy who gives up just like that - oh no
    The tide is high but I'm holdin' on
  I'm gonna be your number one
  Number one - number one
    Every boy wants you for his girl
  But I'll wait my dear till it's my turn
  I'm not the kinda guy who gives up just like that - oh no
