I used to think that happiness could only be something That happened to somebody else
everybody but me yeah yeah
And I've been hurt so many times before
That my hopes was dying so sick of trying
everybody but me yeah yeah
But then you came into my life
you opened up my softer side
And now I can see into your eyes
All the times you didn't understand
Why you couldn't just be my man
There were many walls you had to climb
If you really wanted to be mine
After all the hoops I put you through
Now I see that I'm in love with you
Now I hope you finally understand
So many tears I've had to cry
But you had many more of your own you had to try
But you stuck it out and you're here with me now yeah yeah
And rememberin' the days I pushed away your love
You called my bluff and you still stayed around
And there's no way to lie to you you know me better than I do
Baby ooh you see me through
I'd be no good without you
All the times you didn't understand
Why you just couldn't be my man
There were many walls you had to climb (yeah)
If you really wanted to be mine (ooh)
After all the hoops I put you through (through)
Now I see that I'm in love with you
Now I hope you finally understand
Baby won't you listen now
Can't you see just what I'm talking about?
Said baby won't you listen now
Can't you see just what I'm talking about?
Time went on and I was wrong
To keep my distance for so long
But you never turned away
You're forever in my life
That in you I found a home
Now I can see into your eyes
All the times you didn't understand
Why you just couldn't be my man
There were many walls you had to climb
If you really wanted to be mine
After all the hoops I put you through
Now I see I'm in love with you
