Listen...
Looking back, reminiscing 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 hatinand' n****s up and down the block, babe
you held it down and the bills got paid
she said, andquot;go ahead baby, do your singinand' thing
and when god blesses us i want a lexus
with a hide away mansion in the hamptons'
Girl you must have lost your way from heaven
could it be for me you came so far
there is nothing like the honor of every woman
youand're the very beat inside my heart
girl your like a star i feel so high,
shining like a diamond in outer space
girl your like my mother, my sister, my lover
irreplaceable, nothing can take your place
Youand're the blood in my veins, youand're 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
youand're more then 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
youand're more then 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 separate guests, would you marry me
and if youand'd have me iand'd gladly give my life
today iand'd take this vow to make you my wife
nothing temporary you know its quite contrary
just you and me for an eternity
Girl you must have lost your way from heaven
could it be for me you came so far
there is nothing like the honor of every woman
youand're the very beat inside my heart
girl your like a star i feel so high
shining like a diamond in outer space
girl your like my mother, my sister, my lover
irreplaceable, nothing can take your place
Youand're the blood in my veins, youand're 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
youand're more then 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
youand're more then a woman to me
