[Verse 1]
For love, you pay the price
You give it up, you sacrifice
And if necessary you compromise
Sometimes it's bittersweet
You've got to try eight days a week
To create a good enough love to keep
[Pre-Chorus]
You see hearts belong to fire
So does her love
She burns me up with desire
[Chorus]
My girl's love is right on time
Sweeter than sweet and ever kind
She's so fine
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
Even when I come home late at night
We don't fuss, we never fight
'Cause the girl loves me to the line
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
[Verse 2]
It was out of my hands
I did my best, please understand
I was late for one of our evening plans
Champagne, dinner for two
With candlelight, she set the mood
And there wasn't anything I could do
[Pre-Chorus]
(But, she is so forgiving)
Ooh, the one thing I know is
It's off her love I'm living
[Chorus]
That girl's love is right on time
Sweeter than sweet and ever kind
She's so fine
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
Even when I come home late at night
We don't fuss, we never fight
'Cause the girl loves me to the line
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
[Bridge]
When I go out to play
(She doesn't) mind if I'm a little bit late
She knows I think about her face
'Til I (Get home)
'Til I get back home
What we gonna do tonight
It's raining heavy and it's cold outside
So let's just love until we get things right
And waste a whole lotta time
(I don't mind)
She don't mind, and I don't mind
She don't don't, she don't don't, she don't...
[Outro]
I tell her the things she can't repeat
Makes her little heart just skip a beat
She blush a little bit but then I find
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
Even though our love is C'est Si Bon
Sometimes I like to be alone
Ring the girl on her private line
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
Go to work early (Come back late)
Outta my head (Can't concentrate)
Sometimes my love is a waste of time but...
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
She's better ever than she used to be
Loving her is (No mystery)
Sometimes I'm not so sweet and kind
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
When I call her in the middle (Of the day)
She's busy at work, (But it's okay)
But not too busy to give me time
(She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind)
