My friend and me… may fren an mi
Looking through her red box of memories… lukin tru er red bacs of mem-riis
Faded I’m sure… feided aym shuur
But love seems to stick in her veins you know… ba lov siims tu estik in er veins yiu noou
Yes, there’s love if you want it… yies deers lov if yiu wuanet
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord… don saun laik a sonet may lord
Yes, there’s love if you want it
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord… may lord

Why can’t you see… wuay kan yiu sii
That nature has its way of warning me… dat neishor jas its wuey of wuarnin mi
Eyes open wide… ays oopen wuaid
Looking at the heavens with a tear in my eye… lukin at de jeevens wuitd a ti-er in ma ay

Yes, there’s love if you want it
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes, there’s love if you want it
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord

Sinking fast within a boat without a hull… sinkin fast wuirin a bout wuidau a jool
My lord
Dreaming about the day when I can see you there… dshriimin abao de dey wuen ay can sii yiu deer
My side… may sai
By my side… ba ma sai

Here we go again and my head is gone, my lord… ji-er wui go aguen en ma jeed is goon ma loord
I stop to say hello… a estap tu sey jelou
‘Cause I think you should know by now… cosay tdink yiu shuud nou bay nao
By now… bay nao
By now
By now
By now
By now
Oh, by now… oh bay nao
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
