Lyrics

Down

If I love you

If I love you girl I want you to know

That I'm never ever lettin' you go

If I show you

If I show you

If I show you 'cause I want you to know

It's the only way I'm lettin' you flow

If I tell you

If I told you like I told you before and I'll tell you again

I really want you as my love and my very best friend

'Cause I love you

Yes I love you

Yes I love you

Yes I...

If I love you

If I love you girl I want you to know

It's the only way I'm lettin' you flow

So I tell you that I love you

And I told you before and...

'Cause I love you

Yes I love you

Yes I love you

Yes I love...
