5ive & 13irteen: Just Because

Now baby I aint got no flowers for you....got hours for you...
Good conversation, you know how I spoil you...
Take all your sadness, have you feeling mighty royal when you
Leave me, best believe that you are worth all that I toil thru...
Adore you like a queen, thoroughly get compared...
Even when I bore you, still the intent is there...
Give you the shirt off my back if it would prevent dispair and
Put in on your rent and hair...[just because] naw I dont
Have no reservations, nor hesitations....
I hope I don't fall short of your anticipations....
Not for tonight, but for our lives I have some plans
But it ain't "extravagant" if that's what you was thinking....
I listen up when you're fantastically jaded,
Giving love even when we don't passionately make it but
Still "my oh my" when you are walking pass me naked....
Widened eyed, and so elated...[just because]

Just Because I don't have a gift, don't hold it against me
You know I think about you, I hope you can forgive me, I
Ain't ignore it, I'll try to compensate for it simply
With the things I do, hope your holiday aint empty...
Wanted to make it special, wanted to make it sweet but
Couldn't, I don't get my check til the 17th...you know
Usually I do this, didn't have it this evening tho
But I do it three sixty-fo [just because]

Now sweetie I don't have no candy for thee....sincerely sorree....
No alcohol, you can blame it on me...
No Sherry to pour my Cherie amour, but
We will get better with time permitting it, surely...
Vine fermenting a ripened according....
Combined significant, nicely adjoining...
Whether walking you down the aisle, navigating across the nile
Or going to the store for you [just because] but darling
You can bet on one thing, you definitely got me....
Not having you a present is killing me softly....
But having you in present is really rewarding, and
Our partnership on it's own is brilliantly bonding...
I'd give you the world, a house, a boy and a girl,
No stress and no pain, and you'd go for it prolly,
Well I signed up for prize the after the struggle, I'm
Coming up short tonight [just because] ily....
