WHEN WE FIRST MET U WERE NINETEEN I WAS SIXTEEN
YOU WERE BORN IN EGYPT AND WOULD HAVE BEEN MY EGYPTIAN QUEEN
ADDICTED TO YOUR PRESCRIPTION WE HAD SIMILAR INTEREST
YOU PLAYED BALL LOVED HIP HOP MY BAGGY JEANS PRINCESS
MADE ARRANGEMENTS TO LINK UP, U WERE AT UNI IN LONDON
WE MET ON THE REGULAR CAUSE THAT WERE MY DAD COMES FROM
RAN FROM HOME WHEN YOU WERE AVAILABLE
PLAYED THE FOOL WOULD BREAK THE RULES SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN SCHOOL/ BUT U WERE AMAZING CHANGED WHEN WE MADE FRIENDS/
STAYED IN UR PLAY PEN MADE LOVE TILL THE DAYS END
STARED IN YOUR GAZE MET WHEN I STEPPED OFF STAGE
NEVER PLAYED AWAY DEDICATED TO U FROM DAY ONE
SAID SOMETHINGS LIED ABOUT MY AGE FOR ONE
OUR RELATIONSHIP BEGUN LIKE THIS NEVER KNEW IT WOULD COME TO THIS,
BUT WHEN U DISCOVERED I WAS THREE YEARS YOUNGER
SAID WE COULDN’T STAY LOVERS CAUSE I WASN’T OLD ENOUGH


AFFECTION LAST AS LONG AS THE INVESTMENT
FIRST IMPRESSIONS COUNT NOW IVE LEARNT MY LESSON
COULDN’T FIND A WAY TO BE AT YOUR SIDE ALL DAY
SIGH AND SAY ITS ANOTHER EXPIRY DATE
ITS LIKE

FIRST WE LAUGH THEN WE CRY
SAY HELLO SAY GOODBYE

I FIRST MET U AT CARNIVAL U WERE THE GENUINE ARTICLE
WORSHIPED THE GROUND U WALKED UPON LIKE A CARDINAL
REMARKABLE GLANCED AT U SAW A VISION OF BEAUTY
SANG LIKE BEYONCE AND WAS A BOOTYLICIOUS CUTIE
SHE HAD BUFF LIPS, BUFF HIPS AND BUFF TITS
KNEW IT WASN’T A FLUKE WHEN THIS DUKE MET THIS DUCHESS
FROM OUT OF TOWN LOST CONTACT I WAS TRYING TO BE RIGHTEOUS
GUESS WHAT I BUMPED INTO HER DRUNK IN CYPRUS
TO WASTED TO REALISE GOT HER NUMBER ANYWAY
GOT BACK TO ENGLAND CALLED HER UP THEN SHE SAID
SHE WAS THE ONE, WOULDN’T BELIEVE SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT
NOW I’M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE REASON
WE MET AGAIN BUT THE STORY SEEMED TO BE DEEPER
BOTH ARIES BOTH MUSICIANS COULDN’T BELIEVE IT EITHER
MET HER AGAIN BY CHANCE IN BARCELONA
WANTED TO LOVE AND HOLD HER BUT SHE WAS WITH ANOTHER SOLDIER

AFFECTION LAST AS LONG AS THE INVESTMENT
FIRST IMPRESSIONS COUNT NOW IVE LEARNT MY LESSON
COULDN’T FIND A WAY TO BE AT YOUR SIDE ALL DAY
SIGH AND SAY ITS ANOTHER EXPIRY DATE
ITS LIKE

FIRST WE LAUGH THEN WE CRY SAY HELLO SAY GOODBYE

ALL THE LADIES IVE MET AND SLEPT WITH HAVE BEEN A BLESSING IN DISGUISE
RECOGNIZING YOUR IMPORTANCE OF COURSE THEY MIGHT DESPISE
THE DEMISE OF OUR RELATIONSHIP THROUGH THE PAIN AND PLEASURE
THOUGHT WE MIGHT STAY TOGETHER THROUGH SUNSHINE AND RAINY WEATHER
BUT WHEN THE GOOD TIMES END AND WE CONSTANTLY COMPLAIN AND NEVER
STOP SAYING WHAT EVER HURTS AND DON’T MAKE THE EFFORTS
TO MAKE IT WORK OR MAKE IT BETTER THEN THE HATE DEVELOPS
ARGUING ALL THE TIME CAUSE I MIGHT HAVE MADE HER JEALOUS
LADIES ALWAYS TELL US THEY WANT TO CHANGE THERE FELLERS
TRYING TO CHANGE OUR BEHAVIOR THINKING THE GAMES THEY PLAY ARE CLEVER
I ACCEPT YOU NOW ACCEPT ME I’LL STAY THE SAME FOREVER
ILL DECIDE WHATS RIGHT FOR MY LIFE TILL THE DAY I'M UP IN HEAVEN
I CELEBRATE RELATIONSHIPS BUT WHEN THEY STRESS MY BRAIN
BY PLAYING GUESSING GAMES NOTHINGS DONE UNLESS THEY CHANGE
FROM THREE YEARS TO THREE MONTHS NOTHING LAST FOREVER AND AFTER SPENDING
A FRIENDSHIP COULD END WITH A SAD OR HAPPY ENDING

AFFECTION LAST AS LONG AS THE INVESTMENT
FIRST IMPRESSIONS COUNT NOW IVE LEARNT MY LESSON
COULDN’T FIND A WAY TO BE AT YOUR SIDE ALL DAY
SIGH AND SAY ITS ANOTHER EXPIRY DATE ITS LIKE
