Last Night's Letter
K-CI And JoJo · Love Always [1997]
I was sitting at home
Thinking to myself
I started thinking 'bout you
How much I do love you, I really do
I would never trade you, never forsake you
'Cause nothing could be better
That's why I wrote you this letter
I love you always, lady
(Chorus:)
Last night
I wrote a short letter
And it went this way
Dear baby I love you, just thinkin of you
Love always
(Repeat)
Now I know I could've called, but it seems much better this way
Cause I'm missin baby
I'm so blessed your my lady, lady
Now I know I can't wait until tomorrow
When you're in my arms again
Holding and kissing you
Doing the things we love to do
Until then....
Chorus
Ooo, Ooo (oooh baby)
Ooo, Ooo, Ooo, Ooo,
(all the things you do for me, do it for the things you wanna do for me)
Ooo, (baby) Ooo, (Ooo baby) Ooo, Ooo, Ooo, Ooo
Chorus
Oh baby I love you, I love you, I love you
And there is nothing that I wouldn't do
Just to prove that I really really love you
And baby I want you, I want you, I want you
And there is nothing that I would rather do
Than to love you.... I love you always
Every night and every day
Thinking to myself
I started thinking 'bout you
How much I do love you, I really do
I would never trade you, never forsake you
'Cause nothing could be better
That's why I wrote you this letter
I love you always, lady
(Chorus:)
Last night
I wrote a short letter
And it went this way
Dear baby I love you, just thinkin of you
Love always
(Repeat)
Now I know I could've called, but it seems much better this way
Cause I'm missin baby
I'm so blessed your my lady, lady
Now I know I can't wait until tomorrow
When you're in my arms again
Holding and kissing you
Doing the things we love to do
Until then....
Chorus
Ooo, Ooo (oooh baby)
Ooo, Ooo, Ooo, Ooo,
(all the things you do for me, do it for the things you wanna do for me)
Ooo, (baby) Ooo, (Ooo baby) Ooo, Ooo, Ooo, Ooo
Chorus
Oh baby I love you, I love you, I love you
And there is nothing that I wouldn't do
Just to prove that I really really love you
And baby I want you, I want you, I want you
And there is nothing that I would rather do
Than to love you.... I love you always
Every night and every day
