I still love you babe
I'm still for you girl
I'll never leave you baby
'cause I realize I need you in my life
Girl it just ain't right
What we said last night
'cause I know we didn't mean it
You feel the love is gone
'cause we don't get along
But I can prove you wrong
Girl I swear
'cause everytime I close my eyes I see you
And how I wanna live my life with you
There is no one
You're all I need and all I want
The only one I'll ever love
Hook
In this relationship we spend alot of time
Now it would be wrong if everything was always fine
Girl, I know we've had our share of ups and downs
But it doesn't mean that we can't work this out
Oh baby girl, I care, yeah
You know I do
'cause everytime I close my eyes I see you
And how I wanna live my life with you
There is no one else
You're all I need and all I want
The only one I'll ever love
Hook
No, oh girl, I know I need ya baby
'cause everytime I close my eyes I see you
And how I wanna live my life with you
There is no one else
You're all I want and all I need
The only one I'll ever love

I Still Love You
Babyface's 'I Still Love You' stands as a quintessential example of his smooth, R&B-infused pop sensibility, characterized by lush harmonies and a melodic structure that prioritizes emotional resonance over complex production. Released during the height of his solo career, the track exemplifies his signature ability to blend soulful vocals with accessible pop arrangements, creating a sonic landscape that defined the late 1980s and early 1990s sound. The song reflects the artist's deep connection to the genre, drawing from the rich traditions of Motown and contemporary R&B while crafting a timeless love ballad that remains a staple of his discography. Its enduring appeal lies in its universal theme of enduring affection, delivered with a warmth that has made it a favorite among fans and a frequent inclusion in compilations celebrating the era's greatest romantic ballads.
