Still Believe In Love
jacksoul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She left with all my CD's.
She was to small to take the Big screen.
So she took all my DVD's.
I swear the woman went crazy, cussin and yellin at me
Lord knows that nothing's gonna break me
As long as I still believe.
That's why you gotta know
I still believe in love
I still believe in love
I still believe in love
Just not with you.
No way.
She called me all kinda names y'all.
She cussed me right where I stood.
She said she'd no longer loved me.
She called me trifling and no-good
I didn't open my mouth yo.
There wasn't nothing to say.
If it's just not in the stars, girl
I won't beg you to stay.
And you know I'm gonna make it ‘cause
Still believe in love.
