Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Here's what could be sweeter you feel the same for me
Say you forever be always there for me
Announcing now the world that you and you alone are
My pride and joy My rhyme in song My right my wrong (or my rock my roll)
And once again on one of my crazy days
I see your face and all that stress is history
And oh I'm forever in debited to your love
For putting up with a man like me (yeah)
You must be an angel
And I'm not the perfect one
Bless whatever it is in you
That keep you holding on
My pride and joy
My rhyme in song
My right my wrong (or my rock my roll)
And once again (hey) on one of my crazy days
I see your face and all that stress is history.
(Beres 'scatting')
You'll be forever and always in my heart
Here's what could be sweeter you feel the same for me
Say you forever be always there for me
Announcing now the world that you and you alone are
My pride and joy
My rhyme in song
My right my wrong (or my rock my roll)
And once again on one of my crazy days
Hey, I see your face and all that stress is history
Now let me tell you little things you might not know
And little things I want you to know
I'll never leave you love in your time of need, no
And here's a little something to keep in your head
I do apologize if I've ever made you sad
'Cause I love you oh yes
I love you, yeah
You're my pride and joy
My heart and soul
My rhyme in song
My right my wrong
And once again on one of my crazy days
I see your face and all that stress is history
