But Then I Met You

I used to get awf'ly moody, when dating a fair-skinned cutie

'Cause every red-hot beauty turned out to be *****y inside

Like something had crawled right up her ass and died

But then I met you, my troubles were through

I whispered, I do, and promised I'd stay in love with you

The day I met you, you know that I knew

You'd be a great screw, thank God I met you

With parents so agitating, my way of retaliating

Was one little rule of dating, give mommy and daddy a fright

I slept with a different black guy every night

But then I met you, my troubles were through

I whispered, I do, and promised I'd stay in love with you

The day I met you, you know that I knew

My world was brand new, thank God I met you

Knowing our happiness is always growing

Is all I need to keep me going

Your smile has me deep in a trance

I'm all about romance

Freakin' show off

We hoped it would last, but could it?

We hoped it would grow, but would it?

I gave you my love and put it

All over your face and your hair

I never imagined I could walk on air

But then I met you, my troubles were through

I whispered, I do, and promised I'd stay in love with you

The day I met you, you know that I knew

My world was brand new, thank God I met you

Thank God I met you, thank God I met you
