Why I Love You So Much

Monica · Super Hits [2008]

Oh baby

You give me the world, oh and everything that I want for

Since I've been your girl

Oh, my whole life has been much better than ever before

You got a tender sweet love, yes you do

That weakens me and takes over me whenever we touch



Baby, that's just why I love you so much

Baby, that's just why I can't get enough

Baby, that's just why I love you so much

I love only you



Now you say that you're down

Oh, you said, you won't play around

No, no not with my heart

And when your boys come around

No you're not disrespecting me

And not trying to be Mr. Wanna-Be-Hard

You let them know that I'm yours, yes you do

By holding me, and kissing me

Let them know that for sure



Baby, that's just why I love you so much

Baby, that's just why I can't get enough

Baby, that's just why I love you so much

I love only you



Yes, you don't ever say I'm too young, thank you baby

I've been around enough to know enough, to know just what I want

You don't move too fast or make me rush, no

One day we're gonna talk about making love, no doubt

Baby, when the time is right



Baby, that's just why I love you so much

Baby, that's just why I can't get enough

Baby, that's just why I love you so much

I love only you



Baby, no one else

Can do what you're doing to me

You take me and you hold me

You rub me in your arms, baby

And I love you for that, baby

You don't front in front of your friends

And your smart enough to be be a real man

And I love you, and I love you, and I love you for that, baby



Baby, that's just why I love you so much

Baby, that's just why I can't get enough

Baby, that's just why I love you so much

I love only you
