VERSE 2

Some people search for a fountain 
That Promises forever young, you know 
Some people need three dozen roses 
And that's the only way to prove you love to them 
Hand me the world on a silver platter 
And what good would it be 
With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me

If I ain't got you with me ba-by
