Much respect to the man, J Dilla
The man saved my life
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
Met her in the Sahara desert, couldn't quench my thirst
Left with verbs, poetry, drenched in words
Knowing me, I was lettin' up to steppin' to her
But every tendency and memory was endin' the urge
Cause I was hurt as a petty teen, forget it, it swerves
Let me lend the time and mind to shine with her
Confine the right feeling I thrive to write her
Combine the light, literally shine, I like her
She the most beautiful, tryna send her my pride
She the sweetest, but bloodstream lemon and lime
Sweet and sour, be the coward, naw, I'm ready to -
Aw, damn, I locked eyes, what I'm gon' do now?
I keep speaking, but my voice won't quite come out
Visions of havin' her as my wife, floating and bound
"Hi, nice to meet you, my name is James"
She say her name, (------)
I done made my way, hah
Fall in love
Fall in love (Chick made me fallin' in love, goddamn)
Fall in love
Fall in love
Ain't that a b**h
Three years later in the living room, chillin' by the fireplace
I see the ring on her finger, and her smile great
Lookin' at our wedding picture like a happy clown
A fancy clown, we just laugh at the fact of it
We relax a bit and ask how we met
She gush, she never forget how romantic I get
I ask her, what exactly was she thinking
The first time we locked eyes, what was you seeing?
She said, "I saw Prince Charming in the castle
James, the love of my life, and my husband, A-F-R-O"
I get choked up and I grab and hold her
When I die, I hope we holdin' hands at the moment
Ya dig?
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
