First time that I saw you girl
I fell in love with you
You were the very first love in my life
Now you're here at the time
I didn't know how to break through to you
To blend your heart and mine
Now the years have passed and I'm a man
I couldn't get you then but now I understand that
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
Saw you over there and didn't know that it was you
Until I felt the vibe (felt the vibe)
Cause you're the only one who ever aroused
This feelin' in me, oh me oh my
My love for you is back
Now I'm checking out the condition
I want to kiss you girl
Give me your permission
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
You were meant to be my lady, not my girl
