Lyrics Love Of My Life (An Ode To Hip Hop) - Longer Album Version - Erykah Badu , Common

Right here what we gonna do is go back
Way back
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 wasnt the only one
Cause when the tables turmed
He had to break up
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 (yea)
Love of my life
I can depend
Love of my life without you baby
It fells like a sampled true love
But that shit didnt clear
Hot dam and i cant be stopped cause im lyte mc and i'm light as a rock
Well my name is badu and i rock your world, i'm also known as the Gucci girl.
Well i'm super cute and play aint bad
30 26 36 and 1/2
Hope you realize i got them hazel eyes that'll hypnotize
Knock you to yo knees'make you eat cheese
You be so helpless you be beggin me please
A frek-freak, yall and ya dont stop
To the beat yall and ya dont stop
A freak-freak
How 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 he knew
We couldnt 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 and his mine
A friend became the
Love of my life
You are my friend
Love ofmmy life
On you i can depend, yeah, yeah
Love of my life
Without you, baby
Feels like i sampled true love, yeah
But that shit didnt 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
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...
