I love is old school like Mary Jane
|
Boston baked beans and candy canes
|
Exchanged look on a number two train
|
Run catch kiss sunshine or rain
|
Jackson 5, Good Times and Jefferson
|
Yeah baby, you know I liked it better when
|
You lived closer but then you moved
|
But that couldn't stop our groove
|
My magic man, my Brooklyn boy wonder
|
I rub your shoulders the pressure you was under
|
Late night rides after sunrise
|
Catch a flick or two and then back to bed side
|
You in the bubblegoose me in the sheep skin
|
Cold as hell back when it wasn't matterin
|
Long as we were hand in hand you were my man
|
And I'm your girl faith in all the world
|
|
[Chorus]:
|
This is for all the years you've been
|
My companion as well as my best friend
|
So tonight babe I'm givin you
|
What you wants it's all yours
|
|
[Chorus 1x in the background]
|
Our love is like a Romeo and Juliet film
|
So surreal but yet picturesque
|
There were problems I can admit it
|
But we handled it and still the candles lit
|
So glad that we didn't just end it
|
Cause now we real independents
|
Who would have thought the cute little boy from down the street
|
Would fall in love with me
|
It's like a number one dream come true
|
To have somebody you love love you
|
And that's all that matters
|
That we grow together make sure we never shatter
|
You're the reason I live
|
Because I want you to get all that I got to give
|
Long as we're hand in hand
|
You my man I'm your girl
|
Ready to conquer the world
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Our love is mystical like galaxies you can't touch
|
Around the world and back again I love you that much
|
Our love is destiny like Bonnie and Clyde
|
We'll die of old age side by side
|
Throughout the days I remained truthful
|
I keep it tight for you sexy and youthful
|
I told my mom when our days are through
|
If you have to go first bury me next to you
|
What I feel is unexplainable
|
I love you this ain't enough to say to you
|
You've been there from the beginning to the end
|
My companion as well as my best friend
|
You got my heart now here's my life
|
Yes I'm ready to be your wife
|
From here on know that you're the one
|
Anything that you want it's done
|
|
[Chorus]
|
