Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
(Oh)
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
(Oh)
I'm coming back to you
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
I don't ever wanna let go
I hope you really know
Your the one that got me through
I was struggling back then
But I'm doing better now
And I owe it all to you
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Layed back getting too fucked up
I don't ever wanna let you go
Your the one that help me face this
All this liquor to the body
I don't know if I can take it
They say take it slow
Nigga I'm trying, so I'll just face it
Give each day a bit of time
And I know that we'll make it
Take it slow
Take it one day at a time
I know it's time-consuming
But I know it'll be alright
Think about the long lasting love that she's shown you
Take this up to god
You better hope that she don't play you
Bad conscience taking over on the daily
I blame this on myself and the decisions that I'm making
From taking too much just to date an evil lady
Life is pretty evil
But at times you gotta face it
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Everything is in slow motion
Like I'm stuck inside the matrix
My life is going round n' round
I'm just tryna keep the pacing
I'm livin my life runnin through my head
Contemplating what I should've said
Contemplating what I should've did
Life shouldn't be this hard
I'm still a kid
But yet there's still a lot I could've did
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
I don't ever wanna let go
I hope you really know
Your the one that got me through
I was struggling back then
But I'm doing better now
And I owe it all to you
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Layed back getting too fucked up
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
Tell me what it's like to fall in love
I don't ever wanna give you up
So listen up
I hope you know your the one
The one that can always get the job done




Never faulty but always in love
Layed back getting fucked up
