But I Love You

[Verse 1]
There are two sides to every story
And there are two sides to you
One's in love with me
And the other's in love with you
It's a sad situation
Oh, to find one self in
Just imagine bein'
Your own best friend, oh, but lover

[Chorus]
I love you
I place no one above you
Oh no, baby

[Verse 2]
I try to tell you (I try)
All of the right things to do
(You're all you think about) But you wouldn't to me
All you could think about is you
You come one step closer
Yourself gets in the way
But it really doesn't matter to me, baby
In love (In love) with you (With you, I'll stay) I'll stay

[Chorus]
Because I love you
I place no one above you
Oh-oh, oh

[Bridge]
I guess a man can't understand
What it is to be a woman
That's the thorn between us
That's the ocean between us

[Verse 3]
It is a constant battle
Not to lose
(My self respect) And when I'm halfway out the door, baby
You just seem, you just seem to pull me back for more
Ooh (Mind), my mind says one thing, honey
But my heart tells me somethin' else
And it's the same old situation
I just (I just can't help myself), ohh

[Chorus]
Because I love you (I love you)
And I would die, I would die for you, baby, yeah

[Outro]
(Ooh, I love you) I so do (I love you)
I so, and it ain't nobody better so
Ain't nobody's stealin' you (I love you)
'Cause I love you, I love you (I love you)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, baby
(Ooh, I love you) I tell that I would
I'd do it again if you want me to (I love you)
Oh, oh, woah, no, no (I love you)
(I love you, I love you)
Woo, no, no, no
I love you (I love you), oh-ho, oh-ho (I love you)
Yes, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, huh
I love you (I love you, I lo—)
