(Right here, what we gon' do is go back) way back
Oh-oh, oh, way back, yeah
I met him when I was a little girl
He gave, he gave me poetry
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
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
My 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, feels like I sampled true love, yeah
(But the shit ain't clear)
Uh, freak-freak, y'all, and ya don't stop
Uh, to the beat y'all and ya don't stop
Uh, freak-freak
Or could it be that it was all just so simple then?
A teenage love, but you said he's just a friend
He moved around and we kept in touch through his friend Mike
The world was young and we 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
My friend became the—
(Love of my life) you are my friend
(Love of my life) on you I can depend, yeah
(Love of my life) without you, baby, feels like I sampled true love, yeah
(But the shit ain't clear)
Y'all know how I met her, we broke up and got back togetha'
To get her back, I had to sweat her
Thought she roll wit' bad boys forevah'
In many ways, them boys may be bettah'
To grow I had to let her (nevah')
She needed cheddah', and I understood that (that)
Lookin' fo' cheese, that don't make her a hoodrat (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 and, uh
(Love of my life) ooh, you know you rock my world, and
(Love of my life) you b-boy, and I B-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 b-boy, and I B-girl, and
(Love of my life) we don't stop until the break of day (yeah)
