Thank you all for making "Diamond Girl" my first charting single as a solo artist...here's a record I made for Valentine's day. The performance is a nod to what I think Morris Day would do in the studio. Thanks to my talented staff, especially Guillaume Doubet for filming this performance and Yamill Vallecillo for the logo animation. Enjoy...
VALENTINE (Ryan Leslie)
VERSE 1
i don't have to say you're beautiful
you've got plenty other guys to say those words for you
and i don't have to say you run the show
all it takes is a word, i lose control for you
HOOK
i know you're not my girlfriend, but
i swear that i love you
baby i do
i know you're not my girlfriend, but
i swear that i love you
baby i do
VERSE 2
i don't have to say you stole my heart
'cause anything i have i freely give to you
and i knew right from the very start
that the only place i belong is next to you
HOOK
BRIDGE
even thru all
the ups and downs
you can't stop
the way i feel now
even thru the storm
joy & pain
i won't change
still feel the same
anytime you call
i don't care
no matter the reason
i'll be there
constantly on my mind
and that's why i'm hoping
you will be my
valentine (valentine)
HOOK
...and i know you love me too
VOICEBOX
i swear that i love you...yes i do
