I would always sit and dream about you
Chocolate, vanilla, caramel who
Would be the one for your introducing to
A new you, your other half who
Has been hoping, praying, someday
We would find a route, direction, a way
Into each others' testimonies
As everything for which our hearts crave
So I took a bus but trip was too long
Hopped in a cab (the traffic so gone)
Jumped in a hoopty boat and a plane
Met some potentials but no "oh man's
That there's the plan, the one I'm pursuin'"
Till I went broke, my whole mission ruined
Walked in an open mic and you were
Playing my life through instrumental
Do you know what you do?
So new, there's no one like you
It's true, you are my tune
And you play my flute
Dangerous, Lauryn ain't got a thing on us
Play my pain till the stage is us
Play my life, my soul, my love.
Love, love oh so new
Had a piano play a tune
Had a guitar try to pose as you
But don't nobody put it down like you.
Nah, Love, you're the Real L.L.
Doin' doin' and doin' it well.
I thank the heavens from which you fell
If I thirst for real would be my well?
I met a lot of players before dating you,
A violin player and a drummer too
But they were so off pitch I conclude
All I really needed was some real good flute.
Do you know what you do?
So new, there's no one like you
It's true, you are my tune
And you play my flute
