I Love You

you were always asking why do i need you in my life 
i need you like how a baby needs milk to grow big & strong
like a recorder you kept repeating asking why do i need you 
when I’m cold like a blanket you keep me warm all night long

there are so many reasons why i need you my baby 
when I’m down you know how to put a smile on my face 
i know for a fact baby that i will always need you around 
because each memory of us together i can’t seem to ever erase

i need you in my life for many reasons some big and some small 
but one of the main reasons baby is you showed me a new life 
so baby i know whenever you ask me why do i need you 
my response will always be because baby i want you as my wife

you always ask why do i need you right after we have an argument
it doesn't bother me much plus even when you argue you look so sweet
but even with the arguments baby i swear i love you and i am never leaving 
you are special and i love you from the crown of your head to the sole of your feet 

some are with women for the fame and some get involved for money
all i need is you, you entered my life and at that moment i was complete
i just want you to know baby that you are special and i really love you
and my heart will always belong to you and no other can even compete

so finally stop asking me over and over again boo about why i need you 
because for you all you would have to do is ask and i would give you the world
reasons why i need you is because baby i see that you are like no other female
and that alone makes me feel honored each time i get to call you my baby-girl

i need you boo and if you requested immediately i would transform into your genie 
because each time you made a wish i would always ensure that it comes through
what i feel for you i can’t seem to remember feeling the same for any other 
it always warm my heart and sends thrills up my spine when you say I LOVE YOU !
