“Dangerously In Love”

“Baby I love you/You are my life/My happiest moments weren’t complete/If you weren’t by my side/You’re my relation/In connection to the sun/With you next to me/There’s no darkness I can’t overcome/You are my raindrops/I am a seed/With you and God, who’s my sunlight/I bloom and grow so beautifully”

“Flaws and All”

“I don’t know why you love me/And that’s why I love you/You catch me when I fall/Accept me flaws and all/And that’s why I love you/I neglect you when I’m working/When I need attention I tend to nag/I’m a host of imperfection/And you see past all that/I’m a peasant by some standards/But in your eyes I’m a queen/You see potential in all my flaws/and that’s exactly what I mean.”

“Dance For You”

“I just wanna show you how much I appreciate you, yes/Wanna show you how much I’m dedicated to you, yes/Wanna show you how much I will forever be true, yes/Wanna show you how much you got your girl feeling good/Wanna show you how much, how much you understood/Wanna show you how much I value what you say/Not only are you loyal, you’re patient with me babe/Wanna show you how much I really care about your heart/Wanna show you how much I hate being apart.”

“1+1”

“If I ain’t got nothing/I got you/If I ain’t got something (I don’t give a damn)/’Cause I got it with you
I don’t know much about algebra (but I know)/One plus one equals two/And it’s me and you/That’s all we’ll have when the world is through (’cause baby)/We ain’t got nothing without love/Darling you got enough for the both of us (so come on baby)”

“Rather Die Young”

“What I’m telling you/I’m giving you my life, it’s in your hands/And what I’m gonna do/Is be a woman and you can be a man/And I wanna say/Nobody understands what we’ve been through/I rather give up everything/Than to live my life without you”

“Halo”

“Remember those walls I built?/Well, baby they’re tumbling down/And they didn’t even put up a fight
They didn’t even make a sound/I found a way to let you in/But, I never really had a doubt/Standing in the light of your halo/I got my angel now.”
