Listen... |
|
Looking back, reminscing on, caught a brother doing bad, and you put me on |
|
You told me not to be ashamed of what |
|
I got, never mind them hatein' n****s up and down the block, babe |
|
You held it down, and the bills got paid |
|
She said, "Go ahead baby, do your singin' thang, and when God blesses us I want a Lexus, with a hide-away mansion in the Hamptons" [chorus] |
|
Girl you must have lost your way from heaven, |
|
Could it be for me you came so far? |
|
Nothing like the ordinary woman, you're the very beat inside my heart, |
|
Girl your like the star |
|
I view so high, shining like a diamond in outer space. |
|
Girl your like my mother, my sister, my lover... irreplaceable, nothing can take your place |
|
You're the blood in my veins or the air |
|
I breathe, on a hot summer day your like a shirt with no sleeves, |
|
What makes me a man, any fool could see, |
|
You're more than a woman to me. |
|
Girl if you take that back, there would be no cure, |
|
I would sail there forever, like a ship with no shore |
|
What makes me a man, any fool can see, |
|
You're more than a woman to me. |
|
Look at us, living luxury and |
|
I been thinking maybe we should start a family |
|
A girl for you, and a boy for me |
|
Matching stones, seperate guests, would you marry me? |
|
And if you'd have me, |
|
I'd gladly give my life, today |
|
I'd take this vow to make you my wife. |
|
Nothing temporary, you know its quite contrary, |
|
Just you and me, for eternity. [chorus x2] |
