Lyrics[]
Helen: Threw some chords together
The combination...
Both: D-E-F
Helen: It's who I am, it's what I do
And I was gonna lay it down for you
I try to focus my attention
But I feel so...
Both: A-D-D
Helen: I need some help, some inspiration
Chuck E: But it's not comin' easily
Helen: (Whoa) Tryin' to find the magic
(Oh) Tryin' write a classic (Whoa)
Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know? (Whoa)
Wastebin full of paper (Whoa)
Clever rhymes, see ya later
Both: These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
Helen: I love you
Both: I love you
Helen: Read some Byron, Shelley, and Keats
Recited it over a hip-hop beat
I'm having trouble saying what I mean
With dead poets and drum machines
I know I had some studio time booked
But I couldn't find the killa hook
Now you've gone and raised the bar right up
Nothing I write is ever good enough
Both: These words are my own (Helen: These words are my own)
From my heart flow (Helen: From my heart flow)
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way (Helen: There's no other way)
To better say
Helen: I love you
Both: I love you
Chuck E.: I love you. There's just no other way I can put it, no other words in all the English language... all the other languages of the world. I love you. That's what I do.
Helen: I'm gettin' off my stage
The curtains pulled away
No hyperbole to hide behind (Chuck E.: Hyperbole?)
My naked soul exposes
Whoa, oh
Whoa, whoa, oh...
Whoa...ooh...
(Whoa) Tryin' to find the magic (Chuck E.: Magic...)
(Whoa) Tryin' to write a classic (Chuck E.: Classic...)
(Whoa) Wastebin full of paper
Clever rhymes, see you later
Both: These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
Helen: I love you
Both: I love you
These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
Helen: I love you
Both: I love you
These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
Helen: I love you
Both: I love you
