Listen
Heey
Yup
Supa Doop's in the building
Hey, I like this right here
Yea

What a way to kiss you
But this girl I promised
All them clowdy rainy days are over yea
And baby I will be your umbrella-ella
Say goodbye to them puffy eyes
Love is war and girl I'll be your soldier
And baby I will fight for you forever

Maybe it's my mission
To be one that's always here to listen
And girl you'll be fine
'Cause now that you're mine

I don't wanna see no more (no more)
Tears on your pillow (Tears on your pillow)
Don't wanna see no more (no more)
Tears on your pillow (Tears on your pillow)

And this is my song for you
I can't give you all the world
But I promise now that you're my girl
There's gonna be no more tears on your pillow

No more tears on your pillow
No more (no, no)

Sleepless nights and fuss and fightin'

Take your fingertips
Run the through my hair

I know that I'll be gentile, I won't break you

Maybe it's my mission
To be one that's always here to listen
And girl you'll be fine
'Cause now that you're mine

There's gonna be no more tears on your pillow

No more tears on your pillow

And let those tears fall 'cause I told ya
It's gonna be the last night that you cry
So what am I? the boys don't need reply
'Cause girl you'll be fine
'Cause now that you're mine

But I promise now that you're my girl
There's gonna be no more tears on your pillow
