How to love

See, I had a lot of crooks trying to steal my heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love, how to love
See, I had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now I'm in this corner trying to put it together
How to love, how to love

For a second you were here, now you're over there
It's hard not to stare, the way you moving your body
Like you never had, my love
Had a love

When I was just a young'un my looks were so precious
But now I'm grown up, so fly like it's a blessing
But I can't have a man lookin' at me for five seconds
Without me feeling insecure

You never credit yourself, so when ya got older
It's seems like ya came back ten times over
Now I'm sitting here, in this damn corner
Looking through all my thoughts and looking over my shoulder

See, I had a lot of crooks trying to steal my heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love, how to love
See, I had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now I'm in this corner trying to put it together
How to love, how to love

Oh, I had a lot of dreams that transformed to visions
The fact that I saw the world affected all my decisions
But it wasn't my fault, it wasn't in my intentions
To be the one here talking, to be the one you're listening

See, I don't mind your poppin' bottles and dippin'
Just as much as you admire bartendin' and strippin', baby
But don’t be mad, nobody else trippin'
I've seen a lot of crooks, but the crooks still crook

See, I had a lot of crooks trying to steal my heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love, how to love, yeah

See, I just want you to know
See, I deserve the best, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, yeah
See, I want you to know
I'm far from the usual
Far from the usual

See, I had a lot of crooks trying to steal my heart
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out
How to love, how to love, yeah
See, I had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now I'm in this corner trying to put it together
How to love, how to love, yeah

How to love
