Jed Madela Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why I should believe you
Believe in all the things that you tell.
And I would sure like to believe
My heart wants to receive you
Just make me know that you are sincere.
You know I′d love for you to lead me
And follow thru completely
And if you give your very best
To bring me happiness
I'll show you just how much I adore you.
Cause you mean the world to me,
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters, matters to me.
Oh baby, baby baby baby,
Baby, cause you mean so much
To me.
Now its gonna take some workin′
But I believe you'll worth it
As long as your intentions are good
(So good)
There is just one way to show it
And girl I hope you know it
That no one could love you like I could.
Lord knows I want to trust you
And always how I'd love you
I′m not sure if love is enough
And I will not be forsaken
And I hope there′s no mistaken
So tell me that you'll always be true.
You mean the world to me
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters, matters to me
Oh baby baby baby baby

Oh baby baby baby baby!
Cause you mean the world to me
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters, matters to me.
Oh baby baby baby baby
