Lyrics
My Love Is You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some men desire a princess
And others lust for a temptress
Well I don't need one a those 'cause
My love is you
My love is you
Some men replace their mamas
And some want a young Baiana
I have no use for those 'cause
My love is you
And my love is you
Sometimes dear
You tell me I'm an asshole
Sometimes you're an asshole too
Even though we're filled with
imperfections
I don't think any less of you
I'm primitive & selfish
I'm childlike & I'm helpless
Well I got that way because of
My love for you
My love is you
My love is you
