It’s a story
Lovely lady, finest girl
Don’t give me woe
Cause she told me that she loves me
That she would not take control

So I told her, I ain’t frontin’
I won’t mess with what i find
Gonna keep her close to me and
Give her love that is divine
Baby, baby

Now I’ma bring you back to reality
Where things ain’t always nice
Lots of fussin’
Lots of cussin’
Sometimes things don’t turn out right
So I keep her close to me and
Tell her everything’s all right
No more crying
No more shadows, girl
I’ll be your light

Lady don’t you be scared
Know that we can do this right
If only we could open up
Instead of messin’ with your mind

I’m not sayin that I ain’t free
Cause I know I’ll do you wrong
And I’m praying that you will see
That I do not mean you harm
It ain’t easy ’cause I am me
Sometimes hard to tell the truth
Still I’m tryin’
Please believe that
Try my best to close these wounds

Baby, baby
Don’t you worry
