Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I never wanted a woman that wanted
Me for my name or material things
See, I always hope for a woman that's so sure
Emotionally secure, with spiritual faith
A woman that I can trust with all of my secret
And even listen to all of my issues
A woman who never judge
Me or how I was
She deals with me strictly through love
[Verse 2]
Someone who will put up with the things
Loving me can bring
But still be there to see us through
Someone who would put up with the strange and complicated things
And complicated things
'Cause I would do the same for her too
Someone who I can be real with, ain't gotta be perfect
'Cause loving one another is all that matters
It's not hard to explain
So believe me when I say
That I found all of that in you
[Verse 3]
All that I hope for a friendship that's so pure
A girl I can talk to 'bout whatever's on my heart
A woman that needs me
That trust and believes me
That won't take my kindness as some kind of weakness
A woman who bares her soul, who is will to let go
That wants me to lead her but knows how to take control
And when I'm feeling down
'Cause things are going wrong
She fills me up and makes me feel strong
[Verse 4]
Someone who will put up with the things
Loving me can bring
But still be there to see us through
Someone who would put up with the strange and complicated things
'Cause I would do the same for her too
Someone who I can be real with, ain't gotta be perfect
'Cause loving one another is all that matters
It's not hard to explain
So believe me when I say
That I found all of that in you
[Verse 5]
You are that someone who loves me
Through all my imperfections
You know my heart is filled with nothing but good intentions
You are the one that told me, long as we got us, nothing matters
You are the one that sees the joy through the pain
You are my light through the rain, here and now
Girl, I'm saying, it's you
You're my heart, it's you
Your that someone I can truly say that I'll never find another like you
[Verse 6]
Someone who will put up with the things
Loving me can bring
But still be there to see us through
Someone who would put up with the strange and complicated things
'Cause I would do the same for her too
Someone who I can be real with, ain't gotta be perfect
Because loving one another is all that matters
It's not hard to explain
So believe me when I say
That I found all of that in you
[Verse 7]
Someone who will put up with the things
Loving me can bring
But still be there to see us through
Someone who would put up with the strange and complicated things
'Cause I would do the same for her too
Someone who I can be real with, ain't gotta be perfect
Because loving one another is all that matters
It's not hard to explain
So believe me when I say
That I found all of that in you
