Gerald Levert - Baby You Are lyrics

rate me

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

[1]

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 hating their lies

I know they want what I got

It comes once in a lifetime, yeah

[2]

You're the reason why I sing

All of life's finer things

Like rainbows and shining stars

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

[Repeat 1]

[Repeat 2]

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

[Repeat 2 until fade]
