[Verse 1: Nathan Morris] The first thing I did wrong Was hook up with a girl that wasn't grown She looked like a woman but her mind worked like a child It was her girlish qualities that made me smile (Made me so happy) The outside didn't show me what was in And her ending didn't look like it began Now I know and it's for sure That you can't change a girl to a woman [Chorus: Nathan Morris, Boyz II Men] I'm okay, make sure you're okay (Okay) No matter how long it takes Make sure that you're okay (Okay) And if she goes away Make sure that you're okay (Okay) Now that I got out (I got out) I'm just looking out (I'm just looking out) Trying to show you the way to be okay [Verse 2: Wanya Morris] I'd hate to see you make the same mistake So avoid the things that 'cause your heart to break (Try to avoid them) From a hurting brother, I ain't tryna hate (I ain't a hater, brother) But if you mess around with her she'll seal your fate (Yes, she will) You'll never see it coming 'til it's there (Never see it coming 'til it's there) And you'll find out that she doesn't really care (She don't) And it's real (And it's real) what I feel (What I feel) You can have her ass, I don't want her over here [Chorus: Boyz II Men, Wanya Morris] I'm okay, make sure you're okay No matter how long it takes You better make sure that you're okay And if she goes away Make sure you're okay (Okay) Now that I got out (I got out) I'm just looking out (I'm just looking out) Trying to show you the way to be okay [Bridge: Shawn Stockman, Boyz II Men, Wanya Morris] If you decide to stay, it's alright (It's your decision) But take heed to what I say, you'll be alright (Listen to what I'm saying) If you decide to go, then go now (You better leave her) Don't look back because she'll only bring you down Oh, bring you down Bring you down Bring you down (Bring you down) Sing it one time Okay (Okay), woo, woo, woo, woo, woo (Woo, woo, woo) Make sure you'll be okay (Better believe it) It's okay, it's okay Oh, say it again, yeah Okay, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo Okay, make sure, woo, woo Make sure you'll be okay Now that I got out, I'm just looking out Okay Oh, oh, oh, oh, okay Be okay [Chorus: Boyz II Men, Wanya Morris] I'm okay, make sure you're okay (You're okay) No matter how long it takes Make sure you're okay And if she goes away You better make sure you're okay Now that I got out (I got out) I'm just looking out (I'm just looking out) Trying to show you the way to be okay I'm okay (I don't know), you're okay No matter how long it takes Make sure that you're okay And if she goes away Make sure that you're okay Now that I got out (I got out) I'm just looking out (I'm just looking out) Trying to show you the way to be okay [Outro: Wanya Morris] Okay, okay, gotta make sure Oh, oh, oh, yeah-yeah, oh
