My Sick Love

Hung: I woke up this morning,brushed my teeth and thought about me and you 
I thought about your last visit when you said "I only want you" 
You touched my heart,opened my mind and gave me a reason to live 
Then promised me that,when I was paroled,your belly would hold my kid 
But like seasons change,so do people and now i'm so confused 
i can accept you moving on but I need to hear it from you. 

Cecily: Yes seasons change and people do too 
But the only thing that's changed is my love for you 
As time has progressed, it's only gotten deeper 
You've shown me another part of life,you're my heart's keeper 
You've given me back my self-esteem 
Of you I love every little thing 
Our souls are linked together,now and forever through 
Who else would I want on this lonely earth, 
Who else but you? 

Hung: Yea, but,talk is cheap,it gives no peace,I need a guarantee 
That says to me,that you and me,will forever and always be 
I need a sign,to show my eyes,what both of us already know 
How real is your love for me and how deep does it go? 

Cecily:Baby I know the pain of passion  and i'm willing to except it 
But, with love comes doubt and that's only to be expected 
Rest assured and peacefully sleep 
Knowing that this love you'll always keep 
Cause i'm your chick,I'll shout it to the world 
You'll never see me ashamed to be your girl 
I'll hold us down,protect your name 
Lie to the feds,ain't got no shame 
It's us against the world,they can't hold us down 
Don't worry bout it love,I'll always be around 
If they want me,gotta take me in blood 
Boy my love is like a flood 
Strong and hard to resist,incredible to see 
Baby,that love is me 

Hung:Damn,now that's what I call "MY SICK LOVE"
