Old Fashioned Revival Hour - Quartet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That led me this way on a pursuit
Just trying to get to know you on the personal
Cause I have never seen nobody like you
I swear that you're one of a kind
A diamond in my eye so far from a dime
The true inspiration to this song that rhyme
And in my mind you only getting better with time
Whenever they try, you embarrass 'em
Met a lot a women, but not a better one
They say they winning, yet you lights years ahead of them
And they trying to play catch up
So for you my game I gotta step up
Not thinking groupie, for you my respect's up
Cuz you stay ready when we connect up
