"Love Of My Life" |

|
(feat. Common) |
|
|
|
|
|
Bring it over here and let's go back |
|
Way back |
|
Ooh... |
|
Way back, yeah |
|
|
|
I met him when I was a |
|
Little girl, he gave me |
|
He gave me poetry |
|
And he was my first |
|
|
|
But in my heart I knew I |
|
Wasn't the only one |
|
'Cause when the tables turned |
|
He had to break up |
|
|
|
Whenever I got lonely |
|
Or needed some advice |
|
He gave me his shoulder |
|
His words were very nice |
|
|
|
But that is all behind me |
|
'Cause now there is no other |
|
My love is his and his is mine |
|
A friend became the |
|
|
|
Love of my life |
|
You are my friend |
|
Love of my life |
|
I can depend |
|
Love of my life |
|
Without you, baby |
|
It feels like a simple true love |
|
|
|
Hope this s*** ain't clear |
|
|
|
A freak-freak, y'all, and ya don't stop |
|
To the beat y'all and ya don't stop |
|
A freak-freak |
|
|
|
Or could it be that it was |
|
All just so simple then |
|
A teenage lover who said |
|
He's just a friend |
|
|
|
He moved around and we kept |
|
In touch through his friend Mike |
|
The world was young and he knew |
|
We couldn't rush but |
|
|
|
Whenever I got lonely |
|
Or needed some advice |
|
He gave me his shoulder |
|
His words were very nice |
|
|
|
But that is all behind me |
|
'Cause now there is no other |
|
My love is his and his is mine |
|
A friend became the |
|
|
|
Love of my life |
|
You are my friend |
|
Love of my life |
|
A dude I can depend, yeah, yeah |
|
Love of my life |
|
Feels like a simple true love, yeah |
|
|
|
Hope this s*** ain't clear |
|
|
|
Y'all know how I met her |
|
We broke up and got back together |
|
To get her back I had to sweat her |
|
Thought she roll with bad boys forever in many ways |
|
Them boys may be better, to I had to let her (Never) |
|
She needed cheddar and I understood that |
|
Lookin' for cheese, that don't make her a hood rat (Rat) |
|
In fact she's a queen to me, her light beams on me |
|
I love it when she sings to me |
|
It's like that now |
|
|
|
Love of my life |
|
Ooh, you know you rock my world and |
|
Love of my life |
|
You be boy and I'll be girl and |
|
Love of my life |
|
We don't stop until the break of dawn, ooh... |
|
|
|
Love of my life |
|
Ooh, you know you rock my world and |
|
Love of my life |
|
You be boy and I'll be girl and |
|
Love of my life |
|
Yeah... |
