This next song, I wrote it when I was in middle school
And I don't know what business I had
Writing this song in middle school
Because I didn't know nothing about love!
I thought I did though...
And I wrote this song about
What I thought love meant to me
And it's so crazy when I
Go back and listen to the words
And I was like, this is a pretty good song
(Laughs)
So I had to go back and re-record it
It's called "N.B.U."
Here we go — come on ya'll
(Breathes)
Exhaled today, after the rain
And I was wondering if I really knew what love was
If I left this world today
Without seeing love's face
Would that be ok
With me? (with I)
I
Saw the sunset for the very first time
And it was more beautiful
Than I expected it to be
But, above all things,
I really need someone to love me
Unconditionally
I don't want nobody else, I don't need nobody but you
(Don't need nobody but you)
Nothing tastes sweeter, this love is deeper
You need to grow closer to me, baby
I don't want nobody else, I don't need nobody but you
(Don't need nobody but you)
Love can be crazy, I need a real lady
Tell me, is it you?
Am I sleeping, or possibly daydreaming?
I don't know which one is true
Oh, but my heart is beating constantly
C-c-c-constantly
And I feel you in my soul, you're taking control
And the sun is still shining now
And when no one is around
(Echoes)
I still see you smile
I don't want nobody else, I don't need nobody but you
(Don't need nobody but you)
Nothing tastes sweeter, this love is deeper
You need to grow closer to me, baby
I don't want nobody else, I don't need nobody but you
(Don't need nobody but you)
Love can be crazy, I need a real lady
Tell me, is it you?
I don't want nobody else, I don't need nobody but you
(Don't need nobody but you)
Nothing tastes sweeter, this love is deeper
You need to grow closer to me
Baby
Can it be, can it be you?
Can it be, can it be you?
I think I am in, but tell me friend
What is love?
