Yeah, you know I just had a little bit too much of Hennessy

Just gonna tell you how I feel

Look

You so ******' precious when you smile

Hit it from the back and drive you wild (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Girl, I lose myself up in those eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes

I just had to let you know

You’re mine.

Hands on your body, I don’t wanna waste no time

Feels like forever, even if forever’s tonight

Just lay with me

Waste this night away with me

You’re mine

I can’t look away

I just gotta say

I'm so ******* happy you're alive

Swear to God, I’m down, if you’re down all you gotta say is, “Ride.”(Yeah, yeah)

Girl, anything I can do just to make you feel alright (Oh)

I just had to let you know you’re fine

Runnin’ circles’ round my mind

Even when it’s rainy all you ever do is shine

You on fire

You a star just like Mariah

Man, this feel incredible

I turn you to a bride

You’re mine.

Hands on your body, I don’t wanna waste no time

Feels like forever, even if forever’s tonight

Just lay with me

Waste this night away with me

You’re mine

I can’t look away

I just gotta say
