*** Verse 1 *** [Vox 1]
Life is one big party when you're still young
But who's gonna have your back when it's all done (Yeah)
It's all good when you live to have pure fun

Though you never get the lovin' that you needed (Yeah)
Could have left, but I called and you heeded
Begged and pleaded, mission completed (Da)

Not the type to mess around with her emotion (Yeah)
But the feeling that I have for you is so strong
Been together so long and this could never be wrong
