Cool V - She's Not Just Another Woman (Monique) lyrics

[Verse One] I once knew a girl by the name of Monique She was my childhood sweetheart every day of the week Whether PS46, or 151 After school I'd go to her house, to have some fun We both lived in Colonial Projects I lived in building 48, she lived in building 26 We used to play Ringling, Coke or 1-2-3 But when I'm in Monique's presence, I would just freeze The relationship began when I was five startin She was in nursery school, I was in kindergarten We was more closer than a hand and glove This is what you call real puppy love When we'd go trick or treating, I would carry her bag When we moved to Long Island, it was all such a drag Cause I know it would be difficult to see her again I wouldn't miss her more than I'd miss all of my friends Even though we was little this love was unique And this is what I say to my love Monique, because [Chorus - repeat 4X] "She's not, just another woman.. She's not, no no!" [Verse Two] Let me tell ya a little somethin, about Monique Even though we was little she had a physique Indian brown skin with a nice complexion She always gave me tender love and affection I knew she was different in her own little way I used to knock at her door bout every single day I remember when we used to go trick or treatin I used to snatch bags, so she could sink her teeth in Crazy big variety of a lot of candy She would share it with her friends Kim Ron and Fran and Lee-nette, the girl she called her cousin We never had an argument, oh we was never fussin That's why me and her got along so good Anything I asked her to do, you know she would We would have family day, in back of building 70 I would win her a prize, so she could treat me heavenly I don't care what nobody say, because This girl would make my day, and [Chorus] [Verse Three] Now this is the epilogue of this story About a young little girl, especially for me No matter how many years ago I can't forget But then again 1986 hit She looked just the same, but in a bigger version My mind started goin on a love excursion I started reminiscin to her bout old times She began to smile, I guess I rang her chimes I didn't see her again until 1988 And I saw her again, and she still was straight Now this time I had enough courage to speak to her I told her would you be with me, and what would occur Then I asked was, she swingin any capers She said - no not me, nobody got no papers I couldn't believe, after all of these years I was so happy she waited it brought me to tears, cause [Chorus] - quickly fades out
