Life is good looking through the eyes of love. Beautiful looking through the eyes of love. . But you know, I'm telling you, girl. Life ain't all the same.
If you could only see me. I know exactly where I am. You wouldn't want to be me. Oh, I can assure you of that. . I'm not the guy to run with. 'Cause I'll throw you off the line.
