[00:00.93] "Love Of My Life"
[00:01.33]
[00:01.71] (feat. Common)
[00:02.23]
[00:03.44] Bring it over here and let's go back
[00:05.89] Way back
[00:10.02] Ooh...
[00:11.19] Way back, yeah
[00:13.68]
[00:17.00] I met him when I was a
[00:19.36] Little girl, he gave me
[00:22.53] He gave me poetry
[00:25.27] And he was my first
[00:27.52]
[00:27.97] But in my heart I knew I
[00:30.44] Wasn't the only one
[00:33.38] 'Cause when the tables turned
[00:36.32] He had to break up
[00:38.25]
[00:38.66] Whenever I got lonely
[00:41.05] Or needed some advice
[00:43.88] He gave me his shoulder
[00:46.55] His words were very nice
[00:48.56]
[00:49.60] But that is all behind me
[00:52.10] 'Cause now there is no other
[00:54.79] My love is his and his is mine
[00:57.51] A friend became the
[00:59.27]
[00:59.56] Love of my life
[01:01.41] You are my friend
[01:04.69] Love of my life
[01:06.71] I can depend
[01:10.05] Love of my life
[01:12.00] Without you, baby
[01:15.83] It feels like a simple true love
[01:18.17]
[01:23.28] A freak-freak, y'all, and ya don't stop
[01:24.71] To the beat y'all and ya don't stop
[01:27.42] A freak-freak
[01:28.53]
[01:28.79] Or could it be that it was
[01:30.95] All just so simple then
[01:33.70] A teenage lover who said
[01:36.38] He's just a friend
[01:37.94]
[01:38.86] He moved around and we kept
[01:41.90] In touch through his friend Mike
[01:44.47] The world was young and he knew
[01:47.27] We couldn't rush but
[01:49.27]
[01:49.71] Whenever I got lonely
[01:52.16] Or needed some advice
[01:54.92] He gave me his shoulder
[01:57.66] His words were very nice
[01:59.60]
[02:00.25] But that is all behind me
[02:03.19] 'Cause now there is no other
[02:05.80] My love is his and his is mine
[02:08.86] A friend became the
[02:10.34]
[02:10.58] Love of my life

[02:23.22] Feels like a simple true love, yeah
[02:28.24]
[02:34.18] Y'all know how I met her
[02:36.18] We broke up and got back together
[02:37.40] To get her back I had to sweat her
[02:39.26] Thought she roll with bad boys forever in many ways
[02:41.94] Them boys may be better, to I had to let her (Never)
[02:44.73] She needed cheddar and I understood that
[02:47.22] Lookin' for cheese, that don't make her a hood rat (Rat)
[02:50.01] In fact she's a queen to me, her light beams on me
[02:52.32] I love it when she sings to me
[02:55.11] It's like that now
