Even the lines on your face, they amaze me
Still getting used to the way you erase 'em
'Cause they came from the smiles that I gave you
And girl, those memories ain't fading
Hope you know I ain't perfect, I don't claim it
If it ain't working, I ain't blameless
I'm just a man, oh
I hope you know I'm still searching, still changing
And when you're hurting, I ain't painless
And our time on earth is fading slow
Before we vanish
Let me do this while I can
I'm gon' love you right, like I'm 'pposed to do
Anything getting close to you
Give it all the way, if it goes to you
Girl, I got a hun' years to grow for you
Hunnid chances to show you proof
I can love you right, like I'm 'pposed to do
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Like I'm 'pposed to do
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Like I'm 'pposed to do, like I'm 'pposed to do
Yeah, uh
We fell in love in your window in the heat of June
Even the flowers croon
We heard 'em sing in the dead of night
While we watched them bloom
Even under the moon
That song I still remember, that's what I live by
That's what I sing to you
They sang, oh, how I'll miss ya if the sun comes and we fly
So I'm gon' love you right, like I'm 'pposed to do
Anything getting close to you
Give it all the way, if it goes to you, yeah (Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
Oh, I got a hun' years to grow for you
Hunnid chances to show you proof
I can love you right, like I'm 'pposed to do
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Like I'm 'pposed to do (Ooh, ooh)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Like I'm 'pposed to do (Ooh)
Like I'm 'pposed to do (Ooh)
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ah, ba-ba-bae
Ba-bae, ba-bae
Ah-ah (Ooh, ooh)
Uh-huh (Ooh-ooh), ooh-ooh
They don't play for you (Ooh)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Like I'm 'pposed to do (Ooh, way-uh)
