The very thought of you and I forget to do The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do I’m living in a kind of daydream I’m happy as a king And foolish though it may seem To me that’s everything
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you You’ll never know how slow the moments go till I’m near to you I see your face in every flower Your eyes in stars above It’s just the thought of you The very thought of you, my love
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you You’ll never know how slow the moments go till I’m near to you I see your face in every flower Your eyes in stars above It’s just the thought of you The very thought of you, my love
Yeah {Who that?} Mr. Cheeks and Joe And away we go Now if I had a wish, my wish would be somethin’ like this On a beach givin’ you a kiss, yeah Spendin’ time, havin’ lots of fun Straw hat, lots of sun Skirt, yeah, strapped around them lovely backs Starin’ at them lovely yachts, word And look what Jah sent for me An angel that’s meant for me, yeah
That girl thinks that she’s so fine That soon she’ll have my mind That girl thinks that she’s so smart That soon she’ll have my heart
She thinks in no time flat That she’ll be free and clear to start With her emotional rescue of love That you’ll leave torn apart, check it out, uh
That girl thinks that she’s so bad She’ll change my tears from joy to sad, come on She says she keeps the upper hand ‘Cause she can please her man
She doesn’t use her love to make him weak She uses love to keep him strong, ooh, yeah And inside me there’s no room for doubt That it won’t be too long
Before I tell her that I love her, that I want her That my mind and soul and body needs her I tell her that I’d love to, that I want to That I need to do all that I have to, to be in her love (In her love, her love, oh)
I’ve been hurtin’ for a long time You’ve been playin’ for a long time You know it’s true I’ve been holdin’ for a long time And you’ve been runnin’ for a long time It’s time to do What we have to do
Yo’, I can’t front, she’s there when I need her I met no one sweeter I’m talkin’ she greets me all the time with a smile For real, man, I’m lovin’ her style, yeah She’s independent and she’s got her own ‘Cause a club hot man that’s not in her zone Would know to slip in time to be home Yo’, dime piece, she stay on my mind, let’s be gone
She doesn’t use her love to make him weak She uses love to keep him strong, yeah And inside me there’s no room for doubt That it won’t be too long
Before I tell her I love her
That girl knows every single man Would ask her for her hand, oh, yeah But she says her love is much too deep For them to understand
She says her love’s been cryin’ out But her lover hasn’t heard, oh, no But what she doesn’t realize Is that I’ve listened to every word
That’s why I know I’ll tell that I love her, that I want her That my mind and soul and body needs her I tell her that I’d love to, that I want to That I need to do all that I have to, to be in her love
Tell her I love her, that I want her That my mind and soul and body needs her I tell her that I’d love to, that I want to That I need to do all that I have to, to-to be in her love
Tell her I love her, that I want her That I need to do all... Love her, I want her That my mind and soul and body needs her
That girl (That girl) That girl (That girl) That girl (That girl) Oh, that girl
That girl (That girl) That girl (That girl) That girl (That girl) Oh, that girl
