 Ooh...
 Way back, yeah

 I met him when I was a
 A little girl, he gave
 He gave me poetry
 And he was my first
 But in my heart I knew I
 Wasn't the only one
 'Cause when the tables turned
 He had to break up
 But whenever I got lonely
 Or needed some advice
 He gave me his shoulder
 His words were very nice
 But that is all behind me
 'Cause now there is no other
 My love is his and his is mine
 A friend became the
 Love of my life
 You are my friend
 Love of my life
 I can depend
 Love of my life
 Without you, baby
 It feels like I sampled true love (yeah)
 But the shit didn't clear
 A freak-freak, y'all, and ya don't stop
 To the beat y'all and ya don't stop
 A freak-freak
 Or could it be that it was
 All just so simple then
 A teenage lover who said
 He's just a friend
 He moved around and we kept
 In touch through his friend Mike
 The world was young and we knew
 We couldn't rush but
 Whenever I got lonely
 Or needed some advice
 He gave me his shoulder
 His words were very nice
 But that is all behind me
 'Cause now there is no other
 My love is his and his is mine
 A friend became the
 Love of my life
 You are my friend
 Love of my life
 On you I can depend, yeah, yeah
 Love of my life
 Without you, baby
 Feels like I sampled true love, yeah
 But the shit didn't clear
 Y'all know how I met her
 We broke up and got back together
 To get her back I had to sweat her
 Thought she roll with bad boys forever in many ways
 Them boys may be better, to grow I had to let her (Never)
 She needed cheddar and I understood that
 Lookin' for cheese, that don't make her a hood rat
 (Rat)
 In fact she's a queen to me, her light beams on me
 I love it when she sings to me
 It's like that now
 Love of my life
 You know you rock my world and
 Love of my life
 You be boy and I'll be girl and
 Love of my life
 We don't stop until the break of dawn, ooh
 Love of my life
 Ooh, you know you rock my world and
 Love of my life
 You be boy and I'll be girl and
 Love of my life
 
 Yeah...
