I'M GONNA DO MY BEST
Beres Hammond & Buju Banton Lyrics

Thought I could live without you (Eh-eh)
I thought I didn't need you in my life.

Thought everything would be fine
I thought my life would be alright without you.

Saw nothing special about you
I used to take you for granted.

But still you were plauging my mind
But you were always on my mind, bothering me.

I used to take you for granted
I didn't appreciate what I had.

You were the last name in my life
I put you last in my priorities.

Presently you're the most wanted
Now you are the most important person in my life.

And it was yesterday when I saw you down my lady
It was recently when I saw you with my girlfriend.

You were with my best friend (Jealousy reign)
You were with my closest friend (it made me jealous).

All (trop-a-tane?) (Talking game) (And!)
They were talking and laughing together, and it bothered me.

And now I'm falling in love, all over again, yeah
I am falling in love with you all over again.

How could I ever doubt that you were my friend
I underestimated your value as a friend and lover.

Who Say that big man don't cry
Who says men don't cry?

Yuh never miss di water Till yuh well run dry
You don't appreciate what you have until it is gone.

Could yuh find it in yuh heart To give me one more try
Could you give me another chance?

I won't abuse the situation This time I won't lie
I won't take advantage of this opportunity, and I won't deceive you.

By mi nightly conversation Also mi lullaby
I will talk to you every night, and sing to you until you fall asleep.

Well she squeeze orange juice An mi eggs well fried
She makes me breakfast: fresh squeezed orange juice and perfectly fried eggs.

Garments well cleaned From mi socks to mi tie
She takes care of all my clothes, from my socks to my tie.

She's a friend, also a lover Dat mean me not feel shy
She is my friend and my lover, so I am not embarrassed to express myself.

Me express meself Straight up to the sky (Oh)
I express myself honestly and openly.

Woman unleash all yuh sweet chat An how yuh massage mi back
You talk sweetly to me, and you give me great massages.

Heap on mi advices (A jan tar?) mi get dat
You give me wise advice and help me understand things better.

Woman want affection So me dem fill up pon
You want affection, and I give it to you generously.

Through mi ignorance Mi never understand
Because I was ignorant, I didn't realize how important you were to me.

I gwan take time out To show me love motion
I will take time to show you how much I love you.

An make yuh know we cyaan Stop correspond
And let you know that I can't stop talking to you and being with you.

I am di greatest loverboy In all di island
I am the best lover around, and everyone knows it.

Put on ya slipper Put time ya gwan run Hear me out
Relax and listen to me.

Even the wisest man The great King Solomon Hear 'bout him dickie And get a run back Dats how him lost his thought Inna di great Babylon
Even the wisest man, King Solomon, was led astray by a woman and lost his wisdom.

All over the earth Di woman dem God bless Upon di laugh fi man Di man a make dem tax it
Women are a blessing to men and make life enjoyable.

One time yuh hurt dem feeling And make dem flex But a making a part That is the greatest Dis cause matters (over cuppa) Tell ya kiss and caress
Sometimes you might hurt a woman's feelings and make her upset, but that's a small part of the relationship. What matters most is showing affection and care.

Waan buju Banton Dem make yuh ask fi best
Buju Banton wants only the best for you.

I've learned the hard way Woman don't ask me why (Oh)
I learned the hard way that women should not ask me why I cry.

Dan't make me ask him Beres him no stop cry
Don't make me ask Beres (Hammond) why he's crying, he never stops.

All over again, yeah
Once again, I am falling in love with you.

How could I ever doubt (How could I)
I can't believe I ever doubted how important you were to me.

He's a friend also a lover
You are my friend and my lover.

Never could dem fool dem bowcat?
Why would you ever be fooled by a liar?

Watch this!
Pay attention, something important is happening.

Over and over
It keeps happening again and again.
