Love of My Life (Lyrics) | Erykah Badu ft. Common

You be boy and I'll be girl and...

Right here what we gon do is go back

Way back, ooh

Way back, yeah

Erykah Badu:

I met him when I was a

A little girl, he gave me

He gave me poetry

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, 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

But the shit didn't clear

Common:

A freak-freak, y'all, and ya don't stop

A to the beat y'all and ya don't stop

A freak-freak

Erykah Badu:

Or could it be that it was

All just so simple then

A teenage love but you 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

It feels like I sampled true love

But the shit didn't clear

Common:

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'd roll with bad boys forever in many ways

Them boys may be better, to grow, I had to let her

She needed cheddar and I understood that

Looking for cheese, that don't make her a hood 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 and a

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

It 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
