I wanted you to know me
And all the things I do
I wanted you to show me
Every side of you
The moment that I saw you
I started to shake
I needed you to see me
In ways I never knew
I needed you to be me
So I could live through you
The moment that I saw you
I started to sing
I wanna be your life, your life
It's not gonna cost a thing
I wanna be your life, your type
Don't need no diamond ring
I wanna be your love for free
Forgive me if I scared you
By telling you the truth
But don't forget the meaning
Of what I said to you
If you're strong enough to listen
I'll say it again
I wanna be your life, your life
It's not gonna cost a thing
I wanna be your life, your type
Don't need no diamond ring
I wanna be your love for free
I wanna be your love for free
You wanna take it slowly
Well baby not today
If you like to get to know me
Then you got to say
I wanna be your life, your life
It's not gonna cost a thing
I wanna be your life, your type
Don't need no diamond ring
I wanna be your love for free
