Lyrics

Before you came around I asked myself What is this thing called love? There were clouds, the rain kept pouring down Then you brought the sun, yes, you did Showed me all the differences Between a woman and a girl Right then I knew I could be a good man With you inside my world, my world, my world I don't need to take a toke 'Cuz I'm on a natural high Everybody's blowing smoke But girl you never lie Friends say that we in a pinch They're just hatin' their lies I know they want what I got It comes once in a lifetime, yeah You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like rainbows and shining stars Baby, you are You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like diamond rings and fancy cars Baby, you are I was a bad seed And you nourished me, encouraged me 'Till I grew tall as a tree, as a tree You had patience to search Find and bring out All the best in me, yes, you did You see things I couldn't see My mental potential Girl, you showed me, yeah Now it's a reality and I promise for you I'm gonna be all that I can be I don't need to take a toke 'Cause I'm on a natural high Everybody's blowing smoke But girl, but girl you never, never, never, never lie Friends say that we in a pinch But they're just hatin' their lies I know they want what I got It only comes once in a lifetime, baby, baby You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like rainbows and shining stars Baby, you are, yeah You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like diamond rings and fancy cars Baby, you are You are, you are, you are, you are Baby, you are, I mean it, I mean it, babe Baby you are, said you're number one in my book And forever you got me hooked Baby, you are, you are, you are Take it back girl, come on Ooh, who, ooh, who You're my shining star Said baby, baby you are, you are, you are Oh, who, you're everything I need Baby just stay here with me, you are You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like rainbows and shining stars Baby, baby, baby, baby, you are, yeah You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like diamond rings and fancy cars Ooh, ooh, baby, you are, yeah You are, yeah, yeah, yeah Baby, you are, yeah Baby, you are my everything Baby you are You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like rainbows and shining stars Baby, baby, baby, you are You're the reason why I sing All of life's finer things Like diamond rings and fancy cars Baby, you are
