Optional Thing
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.
You know you hit me
From the blind side, baby
I wasn't looking at all
I tried to dance
And do the rope-a-dope, baby
But I was destined to fall
Well that's the best fall I ever took
I can do without plenty of things, baby
Like lots of money
And the problems that it brings
CHORUS:
But your love is not an optional thing
It's not a February fling, no
It's not good for man to be alone
And your love is not an optional thing
You got a figure
Like an hourglass, baby
You just look better with time
You got a mind
Like a steel trap, baby
You're quick to find the bottom line
Here's the best line I ever said
I do, I will, so help me God
CHORUS
I'm so glad
I'm so glad
Out love overcame
I'm your man
I'll protect you in the pouring rain
A typhoon, tornado, in a hurricane
No your love is not an optional thing
It's not a February fling, no
It's not good for man to be alone
And your love
