I've had my share of disappointments
I've been struck by love
I've been struck by love
And I've been blind for love
And wasted time for love

I've always lived by my momma's words so
Never been a fool for love
Tell you like my momma told me
Remember that you're royalty
And it takes a real man to see

[Chorus: x2]
Love is full time
Over time
All the time Now see if he ain't man enough to see
Then you gotta roll
Gotta go
Gotta leave

Tell me what good is candy and roses
If only he'll hurt you again
Just to say that he's sorry again
In my opinion he's the sorriest man
And you can do much better than him
Don't be afraid
To open up your eyes
Recognize and see
Tell you like my momma told me
(You're a queen)
Remember that you're royalty
And it takes a real man to see

[Chorus: x2]

Gotta say you can't run your game on me
Brother I'm wise enough to see
Been down this same street before
Can't go back no more
No I can't go back no more

[Chorus: x5]

You ain't gotta be with that man
No more
