Let me choose my words real carefully
Don't let me be misunderstood, no
'Cause I don't wanna say something I don't really mean
I just wanna love you, love you, love you, love you real good
They always say: Don't go to bed angry
So it's been days since I got some sleep, babe
I say: I miss you; you take it as I'm tryna guilt you
Like I'm insecure, oh
This quiet game ain't working out for me
Leave your pride, I'll leave mine
Lord knows I need patience with you
So I can explain this to you
I'm tryna learn your language, sugar
I just wanna love you, love you, love you good
We got issues, so what?
It's gonna be worth it when it's over
I'm tryna learn your language, sugar
So I can love you, love you, love you good
Don't hear me wrong, I know I ain't perfect
It won't be long 'til my words cause you hurting
You bring up something I don't remember saying
It's like I'm twisting the knife, oh
Please just hang on, yeah, I'm putting that work in, yeah
Leave your pride, I'll leave mine
Lord knows I need patience with you
So I can explain this to you
I'm tryna learn your language, sugar
I just wanna love you, love you, love you good
We got issues, so what?
It's gonna be worth it when it's over
I'm tryna learn your language, sugar
So I can love you, love you, love you good
Let me choose my words carefully
So you can learn me too
Lord knows I need patience
Just wanna learn your language
Just wanna love you, so what?
It's gonna be worth it when it's over
I'm tryna learn your language, sugar
So I can love you, love you, love you good
Lord knows I need patience with you
So I can explain this to you
I'm tryna learn your language, sugar
I just wanna love you, love you, love you good (so I can, so I can love)
We got issues, so what?
It's gonna be worth it when it's over
I'm tryna learn your language, sugar
So I can love you, love you, love you good
