Say you could turn me on

Boy, but that's about it

You can say what you wanna

But I wouldn't believe it

You could write all them songs

That's the game that you play

Tryna write all them bars

But you can't make me stay

Cause I... see right through you, boy

And I, I... ain't feeling you no more

I ain't feelin' you no more

If you knew better

Boy, you would do better

Can't nobody love you there like I do

Baby, I could do better

Boy, if you knew better

You would do better

Baby, if you love me like I love you

Maybe we could be together

Cause ain't nobody like me, ain't nobody like me

Ain't nobody like me, ain't nobody like me

Ain't nobody like me

Ain't nobody like me, baby

Never been with a boy more than six months

I couldn't do it, got too used to it

Ain't nobody ever kept my attention

They couldn't do it, yeah, boy, they blew it

But you showed me what it means to be happy ever after

In love forever

And you gave me the key to all your love and all your pleasure

Boy, I'm a treasure

Oh, be forever mine, you and I

Oh, be forever mine, boy, all the time

You're my forever, boy

Been friends for a minute

So you know just what I like

You know my mind

You done seen boys come and go

So you know what makes me cry

So you just wanna treat me right
