[Common - Verse 1ne] I never knew a love, love, a love like this It's sorta like the love that's played in tennis Limitless, when intimate friends express it I talked to the Most, and I know he blessed it The cadence of destiny, patience, and ecstacy we can be fresh on the, cover of Ebony But this is somethin special we ain't tryna exploit wit a couple a actresses, now I'm in the tabloids Like bad boys, real love moves in silence About out bih'ness, family bih'ness stay private Don't sweat the small stuff girl, cause we both giants I looked into your eye's and I see divine vibrance The way that Prince, Minnie Rip' and Joni Mitch' described it A beautiful package, what's even better is inside it Alive with the feelings that I'm feelin' with you Forever became real, but even realer with you - it's love [Chorus: Marsha Ambrosius] It's love, it's love everytime I think about your smile Anytime I need you by my side, you were there for me 'cause you are THE LIGHT, that shiiiiines and I want the world to see, that you are THE LIGHT that shines, you are my life Loooove... [Common - Verse 2wo] It's important we communicate and watch this relationship illuminate the world Black pearl in you is a lover and friend Picture how your name will sound with the last name Lynn Put a prayer in the air, that it never'll end and if so, when we come back, it'll be better again I will be by your side through the smile & laughs, The child we have, even when the clouds is bad I know your heart had been broken by a love that pass and when you're not lookin, that's when love can grab Sometimes you gotta ask, "Are we movin too fast?" Ain't no limit to a love, that's given from above Mean fish, collard greens, corn bread, you be rockin it Similar values, though in many ways we opposite Attracted to your 'uh', and the way that you be poppin it Brighten my life reminded me to stay positive - it's love [Chorus] [Common - Verse 3hree] It's kinda fresh you listen to more than hip-hop Pop, rock, and Green Day, respectin what the King say For me to give a ring, hey, only a queen may Invites to loved ones, imagine a dream day Walkin down the aisles sayin vows, us eternal.
