Me love you like mango

Better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice and something

Me say me love you like mango

A better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice and something

Tell you I'm the one, don't need a minute of your time

Look at me closely, come and I tell you no lie

Won't compete with no other, what you feel like when I try?

Such a sweetie, skin clean, well meant for clear up your sinus

Me love you like mango

Better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice and something

Me say me love you like mango

A better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice and something

Should'a meet you first 'cause the rest of them did have waste-man vibes

Can't believe how you patient, intelligent and kind

Quick suggestion, meet me at the clock, half way tree stoplight

Make we jump on a bus downtown, we will show you me side (tell you say)

Me love you like mango (chro)

Better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice and something

Me say me love you like mango

A better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice

Feeling alright hunny, I just want to say

You mess with me meds, but in the best way

You're giving me hope for the future 'cause I see you there

Grateful for you, babe, so glad you came

Me love you like mango

Better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice and something

Me say me love you like mango

A better you give me some loving

See how far we can go

Imagine it'd be nice, imagine it feels nice

...

Imagine it would feel nice

I love you like

Me say, you sweet like

And you just do it right, right

I love you like

You do it right

You feel nice

Mango type
