Verse 1
Don’t have to say it, I could see it on your face
Just your presence is my warm escape
Don’t need the jewels, never one for luxury,
Knowing that you trust in me is more than all these bums can see,
Not no puppetry, talkin out my own mouth,
Would hide it back then, but dammit I’m all grown now
Wanna see you smile, know it’s me who drives you wild
Game of scrabble, lost amongst the battle,
Thinking you should throw the towel, better think again
More than lovers we’re the best of friends
The ying to my yang, boom to my bang,
No mean to insult but Pinky to my Brain,
Not because you’re stupid, quite the opposite in fact
When combined it’s like you strive where I lack…
But it’s more than just a word
Feeling so resplendent,
Drawn in by your aura I just find it so refreshing
Hook x2
Baby, I ain’t afraid to say it
Heart’s in good hands cuz I promise not to break it
And you give what I deserve
It’s that special four letter word
Verse 2
Not too many who I often can connect with,
Might be friendly but fall short at making friendships,
You’re the exception, practice no deception,
Yeah I got G, for you it stands for genuine
Often hesitant when speaking how I feel,
Not on the fence, I’m just tired of catching bad deals
Lost in the field, withered is my shield
Cuz the battle’s everlasting so don’t get a chance to heal,
Yeah I’m damaged but we both have flaws,
Long as you can see through mine, the way I do yours
And we may argue but can’t fathom parting from you,
Plus we both know, it’s me who’s always logical
Tissel and tassel, feeling oh so magical
Never get enough of you so never on sabbatical,
Don’t need a rest, what I need is to confess
You’re the culprit who has stolen my chest,
Little more, nothing less
Hook x2
Baby, I ain’t afraid to say it
Heart’s in good hands cuz I promise not to break it
And you give what I deserve
It’s that special four letter word
Verse 3
I ain’t perfect, told you that from the jump
And you made it perfectly clear, it’s me you still want
But my guard always gets the best of me,
Like my heart’s always in a game of hide and seek
When it’s caught, often ends in remorse
Long nights, deep thoughts
Wondering where I went wrong,
I don’t wanna have to feel it again,
Cuz it grows tiring of always playing pretend,
But you’re a gamble that I’m willing to place
Talkin’ all bets in, got my heart at stake (what else)
Turn my cowardness to brave, the spark to my flame
I’ll stop now cuz I could go on for days
Just discussing how you put me in a daze,
Can’t cease to amaze me with your ways,
Drawn in upon your gaze,
Feel connected every single time we lay,
You brighten my day,
I can’t find the words to really explain…
Hook x2
Baby, I ain’t afraid to say it
Heart’s in good hands cuz I promise not to break it
And you give what I deserve
It’s that special four letter word
