Cookie Breath

(album: Knowing Is Half The Hassle - 2003)

Southern belle from the ATL
Eyes set on mind melt
She makes my heart swell
I love the way she feels
I love the way she smells
I love the way she talks
I love the stories she tells
There's nothing I don't like
Sold hook, line and sinker
She's got this rapper wrapped around her manicured finger
She's dramatic and simple
Kinetic and nimble
She's a fickle little riddle and she makes me go mental

I'm in love that's the one thing that I'm sure of
Can't get enough of this dove
Can't get enough of her hugs
She makes me not want to drink or do any drugs
Hold her forever until the sun comes up

Why oh why won't you be mine?
I tried so hard not to cry
Can't contain what lies inside
Could you'd call me up and just say hi?
Why oh why won't you leave that guy?
Why oh why must I be denied?
When oh when will the time arrive
When you look me in the eyes
And say your mine?

Southern belle from the Bible belt
Together forever?
Only time will tell
Until I know for sure
Know that I'm in hell
When you kiss me deep know that it's deeply felt
My eyes swell up when your car pulls up
Feel like a dumb fuck that's shit out of luck
Love bites
Love bleeds
Love fucking sucks
And so I'm stuck in a rut
Knowing you're love is a must

Are we really just friends?
Will this night ever end?
I tried to imply that it was all just pretend
But a lie that size makes a man a mess
Oh, when will I see you again?

Why oh why won't you be mine?
I tried so hard not to cry
Can't contain what lies inside
Could you'd call me up and just say hi?
Why oh why won't you leave that guy?
Why oh why must I be denied?
When oh when will the time arrive
When you look me in the eyes
And say your mine?
