(Now you know what love is)

Listen
See I know this girl from way back (way back)
I'm talking way back city college days (college days)
We had a thing, call it a throw back
She loved dating bad boys, yeah, she played the game
Now fast forward, yeah we're talking ten years later
Couple lovers, couple players, couple breakups
Now we always said we're better off together
(It's funny how we met again)

This could be different (we both know that)
This could be different (ready to show it)
This could be different, you'd better know
It ain't gon' be the same again

You know those past relationships, some of 'em go bad (some of 'em go bad)
But you know this is different, you already know that (you already know that)
You don't have to pretend, you don't have to hold back (you don't have to hold back)
It's just meant to be, it's just meant to be (yeah)
You know when you love someone, you love them so bad (you love 'em so bad)
You ain't never felt it, never felt it like that (never felt it like that)
'Cause every time we making love just as you lay back (as you lay back)
It's just meant to be, it's just meant to be

You know I'm a believer that if it's meant to be, there's a right time
You know when all the stars align the universe giving that co-sign
Guess that we've both been waiting for this special moment for our whole lives
(That's why it's funny how we met again)

This could be different (we both know that)
This could be different (ready to show it)
This could be different, you'd better know
It ain't gon' be the same again

You know those past relationships, some of 'em go bad (some of 'em go bad)
But you know this is different, you already know that (you already know that)
You don't have to pretend, you don't have to hold back (you don't have to hold back)
It's just meant to be, it's just meant to be (yeah)
You know when you love someone, you love them so bad (you love 'em so bad)
You ain't never felt it, never felt it like that (never felt it like that)
'Cause every time we making love just as you lay back (as you lay back)
It's just meant to be, it's just meant to be

You be saying ooh

(Now you know what love is, yeah)
(Never felt it like this, yeah)
(Pulling up in that whip, yeah)
(Call me up short notice, yeah)
(Now you know what love is, yeah)
(Never felt it like this, yeah)
(Pulling up in that whip, yeah)
(Pulling up in that)

You know those past relationships, some of 'em go bad (some of 'em go bad)
But you know this is different, you already know that (you already know that)
You don't have to pretend, you don't have to hold back (you don't have to hold back)
It's just meant to be, it's just meant to be (oh)
You know when you love someone, you love them so bad (baby)
You ain't never felt it, never felt it like that (you ain't never felt it like this, no)
'Cause every time we making love just as you lay back
It's just meant to be, it's just meant to be
You know when you love someone, you love them so bad (you know when you love 'em so bad)
You ain't never felt it, never felt it like that (you ain't never felt it like that)
'Cause every time we making love just as you lay back (ooh, yeah)
It's just meant to be, it's just meant to be (meant to be, yeah)
