Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Ay bay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end)

(Let's talk 'bout love, won't end, won't end)

This is my love story
Boy meets girl and looks in her eyes
Time stands still and two hearts catch fire
Off they go roller-coaster ride
Up and down and around
Twisted all out they minds
And then his friends
Said "its too soon to settle down"
And then her friends
Said "he's a playa, slow it down"
They couldn't be who they was
'Cause it just seemed like love
Wasn't on their side

But this isn't just another love story
Together we'll make history
I know because it's just too real
They'll be no end to our love story
And this ain't gon' end up
Like that Casablanca movie, no
This ain't no fairy tale or fiction
This is truly ours for the eternity
They'll be no end to our love story baby

(Ay bay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end)

There's no end to our love story
Chapter two
When they meet up again
Second time around
See but they're just friends
But the feelings still strong
And it's been too long
To be trippin' like they ain't been missing
They on the phone like
Ay bay bay
Let's meet up today
Got's bout an hour or two
You might as well come through

We can make it like it was
Just the two of us
Back up on that roller-coaster
Like we been supposed to
'Cause this isn't just another love story

Together we'll make history
I know because it's just too real
They'll be no end to our love story
And this ain't gon end up
Like that Casablanca movie (no)
This ain't no fairy tale or fiction
This is truly ours for the eternity
They'll be no end to our love story baby

Just when it seemed
Like all the odds
Were stacked against them
They came back stronger then before
Matter fact then some
Stronger then pride
Lookin' like them
Lookin' like her, lookin' like him
Stronger then hate
And the whole world too
Lookin' like me
Lookin' like you

'Cause this isn't just another love story
Together we'll make history
I know because it's just too real
They'll be no end to our love story
And this ain't gon end up
Like that Casablanca movie, no
This ain't no fairy tale or fiction
This is truly ours for the eternity
They'll be no end to our love story baby

Ay bay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end
Ay bay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end




Ay bay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end
Ay bay bay it won't end, won't end, won't end

I love to see Mariah in her natural curls. She’s so beautiful in this video.

Brenda Andrade

Same

Ms oddballz

I just found out from an interview that she started wearing her natural hair during this era because nick loved seeing her wear her natural hair.

Natural Kinky Curly―Marie

@Ms oddballz She was still wearing her Hair straight during this Era. It's on and off. When she's home her Hair is Curly. Most of the time it's Curly when she's just chilling. She never Chemically straightened it that's why, so it curls after a shower.
