[Verse 1]
I was her favorite poem
She was my favorite song
I was her favorite line
She was my favorite note
And when she sung to me
It's like I lost my words
She took them out my mouth
Implanted them in hers
I called her "Spoken Word"
Cuz every line she'd speak
Would have me off my feet
I felt like I was free
[Bridge 1]
But then we turned around
We had a turn-around
Seemed like the girl I sought
Wasn't the one I found
I was untrue to you
You weren't true to me
It's like a levy broke
And all I could say was..
[Verse 2]
All the time in those sheets
You'd think we'd have a book
But verses incomplete
Won't save this awful hook
And when we made the love
It felt much more like lust
See, you'd just gas me up
And all I did was bust
[Bridge 2]
And then we turned around
We had this turn-around
Seemed like the girl I sought
Wasn't the one I found
I wasn't true to you
You were untrue to me
It's like a levy broke
And all I could say was.. NO!
[Hook 1]
But babe, I'm never gonna let you go!
You left this imprint on my heart girl
And I just though I'd let you know
That I'm never gonna let you go!
Baby, I'm never gonna let you go!
[Verse 3]
Now when I'm home alone
I sit and reminisce
Sadness seeps in my soul
It's like I lost my gift
You were my instrument
A soulful mans guitar
See when we loved as one
You were my superstar
[Bridge 3]
But then we turned around
We had a turn-around
Seemed like the girl I sought
Wasn't the one I found
I wasn't true to you
You were untrue to me
It's like a levy broke
And all I could say was, "no!
Don't take my life!"
You would've been my wife
But now there's just this ring
And this is why I sing
The saddest songs
And read the saddest poems
You were my happy tears
I wish I had you here
[Hook 2]
And babe, I'm never gonna let you go!
You left this imprint on my heart girl
And I just though I'd let you know
That I'm never gonna let you go!
Baby, I'm never gonna let you go!
You left this imprint on my heart girl
And I just though I'd let you know
That I'm never gonna let you go!
