Raheem Devaughn - Black & Blue lyrics

rate me

I just wanna speak from the heart right now

To a friend in need

I hope you get this

Love ain't pain love ain't fear

Love ain't bruises love ain't tears

Love ain't two in the morning phone call, phone call to 911

Love ain't fear for your life day and night

Isolated from your loved ones

And I know it ain't make up to cover your scars

Compromising who you are

So tell me (tell me)

What type of love is that to you (to love you)

To love you till you're black and blue (oh no woman)

That's something I would never do (no)

I'd never put my hands on you

Love ain't

Love ain't callin you out your name

Love ain't leavin you blue and black

Love is a man who has your back

Love won't knock you to the ground

Love ain't designed to bring you down

Love don't beat you or mistreat you

Or only loves you when he needs to

So tell me (tell me yeah yeah)

What type of love is that to you (what type of love is that)

To love you till you're black and blue (black and blue)

That's something I would never do (I would never ever ever ever)

I'd never put my hands on you

(Love is)

Love is courage love is hope

Love is facing all your fears

Love is strength in seeking help

Love is the joy inside your tears

Love is help to lend a hand

Being loved by a real man

Love is this, from me to you

'Cause I would never put my hands on you

Tell me

What type of love is that to you (what type of love)

To love you till you're black and blue (what man would leave you black and blue)

That's something I would never do (no)

I would never put my hands on you (never put my hands on you)

Tell me

What type of love is that to you (yeah what type of love)

To love you till you're black and blue (that's something I would never do)

That's something I would never do (I would never never never never put my hands on you)

I would never put my hands on you

(Only) only love you, only kiss you only hug you, only love you
