Tyrese: Roses

It's been a miracle
for what you've done
please stay right by my side
two can be one
the righteous way to go
anyone would know
I believe I thought I told you so
You're second to none

The question is what do I know about love
they ask me all the time do I know about love
naturally I say yes
but I don't know ...
cause if I did I wouldn't be in and out of relationships
why do I get caught up in eye candy
a few days I pound
she ain't no where to be found
everyday I pull so many dimes
I need to change my middle name to one line
cause I got so many one liners
I tried to tell her I was ready to go all the way
but she couldn't be patient with me
and now look at the end result
she ain't here to get these roses I bought
but I'm a keep my self-esteem up
and keep looking for some real love
you know its true what they say
loves as precious as a rose
will I ever find a rose
I don't know

It's been a miracle
for what you've done
please stay right by my side
two can be one
the righteous way to go
anyone would know
I believe I thought I told you so
You're second to none

I seen it coming way before we got here
you want me to put you over my whole career
my career was here first and its here to stay
don't trip girl you're still a ???
my life is movie sets, rhyming, singing and world tours
if I ain't got a rose in my life
then whats it all for
you think I want to be in private jets
laid up in 5 star hotels by myself?
no
I want a rose to share with
the blessing of a backbone when i cant stand alone
I'll come home to a home cooked meal
a manicure, pedicure without seeing a bill
am I describing you?
I don't know


I don't want to spend the rest of my life living single
patience is a virtue
thats the way that it goes
the question is will I find my rose
Is that you?

It's been a miracle
for what you've done
please stay right by my side
two can be one
the righteous way to go
anyone would know
I believe I thought I told you so
You're second to none

My moms taught me not to wear emotions on my sleeve
so when I leave please believe imma leave
I'm not a charity case
but you might have to donate some love tips and show me the way
cause if I really knew it all
you think y'all would have to talk to me about how to love and all
no
I'd be on top of the world at 27
with wife pregnant and white picket fences and shit
its cool
imma get there soon
running around in the yard having fun with my lil ones
thinkin to myself
I had my share
theres gonna be woman everywhere
not like the one I got here
independent, fine as hell and got her own career
and if i ever needed her
she'll be right there
Is that you?

It's been a miracle
for what you've done
please stay right by my side
two can be one
the righteous way to go
anyone would know
I believe I thought I told you so
You're second to none

I don't know what else to say man
I feel like I got something
but at the same time i don't
It's lonely out here
you could have all the money in the world
the ... don't matter
when you're broke you want money
then when you got money
you just a girl to lay up with
to chill and relax ... ...
ya know.
