[Intro]
|
She was saying all the right things
|
She was like a fashion show
|
From head to toe
|
Something came over me
|
Something I couldn't see
|
I said that four letter word
|
L-O-V-E
|
|
First time shoulda been the last time
|
I shoulda stayed away
|
Being in love wasn't my thing
|
But uh oh, looks like another love TKO
|
Bit off more than I can chew
|
I done fell in love with you, yeah
|
|
[1]
|
Look what I done stuck my foot in
|
Turned around, fell in love again
|
Hope love don't let me down
|
Second time around
|
|
Look what I done stuck my foot in
|
Turned around, fell in love again
|
Hope love don't let me down
|
The second time around
|
|
Oh, hope love won't let me down, no, no
|
(Second time around)
|
Second time around, second time around oh, no, no
|
|
I don't mind calling your baby mine, yeah
|
And I'll pay the bills
|
You can spend your dough at will, yeah
|
And it don't make sense
|
Cuz you know I swore off the days, yeah
|
|
But you're a rare precious jewel
|
And I don't mind playing the fool for you
|
|
[Repeat 1]
|
|
Hey look what I done look what I done
|
(Second time around)
|
Stuck my foot in, yeah
|
Look what I done done
|
|
Baby I wasn't even chasin', I was being patient
|
Me and my prostration, feet solid on the ground, yeah yeah
|
Then you came around, came around came around
|
Dealin' with the drama from my baby mama
|
Tryin to keep my karma
|
You were my only friend, I had to let you in
|
Look what I done stuck my foot in
|
|
[Repeat 1]
|
|
I said I'd never love the sun no more
|
Cuz the pain of breakin' up just make me so
|
She'd never loved me quite the way you did
|
God sent you to me and I'mma try it again
|
|
My friends think I'm crazy
|
Don't want me to forget
|
That the first of every month
|
I'm just writing out checks
|
And checks and checks and checks
|
I done fell in love baby
|
|
[Ad lib until fade]
