Be Mine Lyrics
Hey baby hey baby hey baby Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) Hey baby hey baby hey baby Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) We can hook up We can hook up We can get married This is my gift to you My love is true We can get married
(2x)
Who'd have thought my babe was on an island of her own Had me smiling on the phone same page different time zones God's a real character painting caricatures of Christ And his love for the church enduring the pain cuz it hurts When I saw you I went bezerk insane goin looney and cartooney So sue me you was a vision of beauty truly Thinking of all the charm to inflect upon my behalf Forgive me don't mean to stare but your hair is down to your calf Tell me about yourself your culture is polynesian I love when the breeds be mixin our blueprint is in ephesians Instantaneously cultures collided decided we'd ride it Spent time in prayer separately so we wouldn't have to hide it Fictitious image brought to life reflection of love Carefully inspected with gloves so fragile my darling was And I aint need miss cleo to re-assure me that I got her Scored big like the opening week of harry potter
Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) Hey baby hey baby hey baby Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) We can hook up We can hook up We can get married This is my gift to you My love is true We can get married
In the beginning I hesitated debated within my soul Wrestling with my feelings of knowing if you was sent Enduring the distance alone being content Longing your presence believing that we was meant Submitted my intent I was truly convinced Youre the women in my life I couldn't breate without And the one I really wouldn't be complete without And I wrote this so you wouldn't have any doubt Or misunderstanding of what my love is really about Cause from here on out baby its all about us And from here on out I wanna build on trust Cause the union we got aint no comparing any other Im askin you to be more than a babys mother My help mate soul tie my right hand Beginning and end and better half of life To be my lady my lover my best friend and wife hey
Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) Hey baby hey baby hey baby Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) We can hook up We can hook up We can get married This is my gift to you My love is true We can get married
(2x)
Gonna get through it (4x)
Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) Hey baby hey baby hey baby Slow down hold up (i want you to be mine) We can hook up We can hook up We can get married This is my gift to you My love is true We can get married
