Text: Mary J. Blige. My Life. Mary's Joint.

:
I know that you're just a man
But you're all the man I need
And I know
That you care when you marry me
No, you'll never leave

Chorus:
I love you so
I can't let go
You know it's real
The way I feel
I want to stay
I'll try to wait
On you my dear
My love, sincere

You promised
That you never would cheat or lie
Lie to me, no, not to me babe
And you promised
That you'd trust and believe in me
Please believe in me
Unnecessary pain (pain is pain)
Now tell me who would get the pain
(You know it hurts)
If we should go astray
What would we do
What would we say

Chorus

Why can't we work it out
Why baby? can't we try (why, why, why, why, why)
You said our love will always stand
The test of time
(Repeat through chorus)

Let's take our time
Let's build our love
Stronger than it ever was

Chorus fade
