Simple Things

When I woke up this morning
I sing that to your face
It's on me, you
Some breakfast
Eggs, and some beacon on your plate
Cause I wanna talk to you before you walk out the door
Cause I ain't about to walk round here
And watch you stressing no more
Baby think about other times you saved me
Baby let me be here for you
Appreciate all you do
But not to the point of losing you
Cause you work it, stressing, hustling, guessing about how you gon' pay all these bills
But I gotta be honest
That I ain't even want here with you
Cause I'm not everything
I don't want it to tell it to you baby
Cause I don't really need
All the house, cars, clothes, rings
I don't need nothing else from you
But the simple things
The simple, simple things
Baby
You wanna take me to dinner
But look tired as hell
But we might as well stay home
Cause we can't even enjoy ourselves
You ain't gotta buy me no gifts baby
Not even chanel
Cause half of these chicks in chanel be going up through the hell
Oh baby think about other times you saved me
Baby let me be here for you
Appreciate all you do
But not to the point of losing you
Cause you work it, stressing, hustling, guessing about how you gon' pay all these bills
But I gotta be honest
That I ain't even want here with you
Cause I'm not everything
I don't want it to tell it to you baby
Cause I don't really need
All the house, cars, clothes, rings
I don't need nothing else from you
But the simple things
The simple, simple things
Baby
Now don't misunderstand me
I love me a good man
Who loves to take care of his good woman
But I don't think you need go out here and kill yourself over no car, no house
No jewelry
Because at the end of the day baby
While you chasing all that, I'm really chasing you
We got lights, we got food, we got a phone, we can talk to each other
Hell we even got facetime, I can find where you are
And honestly we don't need none of that
As long as we got each other
Cause that's all we really need baby
All we really need
All, baby
Oh baby
All I really want
Is the simple things
That's what I'm talking about baby
