Story Behind the Song
This song was written for my girl as a gift for Valentine's Day 2003. I wrote it over the period of time that we had been together, so you can kinda follow along my views of the relationship as you listen to the lyrics.
Lyrics
[Intro & Chorus: Andre Holmes]
[Verse 1: J-rod]
This is straight from the heart, I don't know where to start
You're a masterpiece in this gallery of art
Pullin' me apart, had me reeled in from the start
When I think about you, it's like I'm peelin' apart
You're beautiful, I wanna stay true to you
Do what you wanna do, I give my world to you
You're my girl, my boo, even my words can't do
Justice to everything that encircles you
I'll be there for you, even in the worst of days
I'ma be right there to say it'll be okay
Girl, you straight, I can't contemplate
The way you came in my life and reshaped my fate
I took the bait--my priorities, you took that place
Crossed the street and I looked both ways
You got me shook in all ways, don't let no other girls call me
My word is true, I'ma be with you always
[Chorus: Andre]
[Verse 2: J-rod]
I can see it in your eyes, you don't need no other guy
And I don't need no other girl--in my world, you're like the sky
Everywhere, let me run my fingers through your hair
When you're not there, I'm missin' you, my life is bare
When I'm lonely, I just wanna hear your voice
Think about you all the time, I don't even hear my boys
Whatever they sayin', I ain't tryin' to hear that noise
Want you near me, when you're not here it destroys
My emotions, hopin', girl, you got me floatin'
For you I would cross the ocean and you know it
Sometimes it's just hard for me to show it
I spill my heart to you over an R&B chorus
I write my thoughts in rhyme form like a poet
Got my chance with you, don't wanna blow it
I'm lost--don't know where to start or where I'm goin'
Here's the key to my heart--I want you to hold it
[Chorus: Andre]
[Verse 3: J-rod]
You got me messed up, stressed but, for you, I'd give the rest up
Blessed to have you in my life, doin' it right
Forget the guys, I'ma be with you tonight
I was lost in the darkness--you the light
I'm with you now, don't ever wanna lose you
Not what I'm used to, I'ma be there to soothe you
Whatever we go through, you know we gon' pull through
Don't worry about me--do what you do
Who knew? Never imagined I'd be fallin' in love
Callin' my bluff, now you got me callin' you up
I been blessed with Sarah Elizabeth
Your name means "Princess", so I'ma treat you like one
Like none other, so unique
Need you to roll with me, I hold nothing above you
Every moment I'm always thinking of you,
You need to hear these three word--I love you.
[Outro: Andre]
