Calvin Richardson › Lyrics › Not Like This

Girl, I know a thing or two about the way things go
With someone as fine as you
You be constantly dealin' with the drive-by's
And the way guys be spittin' at you

So, it's hard for me to think that you ain't had love
Ain't been you he thought the world of
And I just can't see how even a playa
Wouldn't be ready to settle down

Girl, you're so special, I would be the one
That makes you believe, that you haven't
Had a real good man, I just can't see it
So, how can it be?

You never been cared for, no not like this
Girl, don't look no further, you never made love before
No not like this, it's just for you, you say
You had everything and nothing was missing
What you thought was right is wrong, so baby
Just let me in, girl, I know you had it but not like this

Girl, you must have heard all the things
I'm tellin' you, I'm not tryin' to pressure you
But I have to come at you with
What I really feel, girl, I, I'm sick over you

You ain't been told that you're worth
More than gold, now you know, girl, you are
Now girl, I'll take the time, the time to treat you right
'Cuz girl, I just wanna settle down

Girl, you're so special, I will be the one
That makes you believe, that makes you believe
That you ain't had a real good man
I just can't see it, so how could it be that?

You never been cared for, no not like this
Girl, don't look no further, you never made love before
No not like this, it's just for you, you say
You had everything and nothing was missing
What you thought was right is wrong, so baby
Just let me in, girl, I know you had it but not like this

So, I take all the time that I need
To show you how I really feel about you
And I do all the things just to prove
That I never wanna be without you

So baby girl, the things you never had
I'll give you and I'll, I'll be the one that's gonna
Claim you, I'll be the one that's gonna
Name you, girl, I'll be the one for you, oh

You never been cared for, no not like this
Girl, don't look no further, you never made love before
No not like this, it's just for you, you say
You had everything and nothing was missing
What you thought was right is wrong, so baby
Just let me in, girl, I know you had it but not like this

Never had it like this, oh no, no, no
Girl, you never had it like this
No, not like this, you never
