Girl, I know you're scared of love
But you never had a love like this
I know you been hurt before
But you never had a love like this

Like this
Ride for you is always your ride for me
Like this
Wherever you are is where I wanna be
Like this
Cross my heart, girl, I'ma ride with ya
Like this
I gon' be the frame, you can be the picture

Ooh, don't worry baby girl, 
'Cause I got it bad for you
You won't hurt no more
It's okay if your heart ain't ready
But, girl, I can't leave you alone

I know that you've been dealin' with these clowns 
That ain't treating you right
I'm the type of guy that don't make promises
I wanna be the love of your life
Don't be scared

Girl, I know you're scared of love
But you never had a love like this
I know you been hurt before
But you never had a love like this

A love like this
Ride for you is always your ride for me
Like this
Wherever you are is where I wanna be
Like this
Cross my heart, girl, I'ma ride with ya
Like this
I gon' be the frame, you can be the picture

Ooh, 
I admit I used to be the same hood 
that you're scared of outta control
Tried to hit every woman that I came in contact with
Out on the road

But I got it out of my system, 
girl, I did that when I was young
I need somebody that's gon' hold me down
Cross my heart, you'll be the only one
Don't be scared

Girl, I know you're scared of love
But you never had a love like this
I know you been hurt before
But you never had a love like this

A love like this
Ride for you is always your ride for me
Like this
Wherever you are is where I wanna be
Like this
Cross my heart, girl, I'ma ride with ya
Like this
I gon' be the frame, you can be the picture

Ooh, if you open your heart and let me in it
Gonna love you every minute
Ooh, girl, there's no doubt about it
You just can't keep running from love

Ooh, girl, I'm willing to show
How you been dolin' out poison
Ooh, take a chance and give me your lovin'
Baby, only good love, baby, don't you be

Girl, I know you're scared of love
But you never had a love like this
I know you been hurt before
But you never had a love like this

A love like this
Ride for you is always your ride for me
Like this
Wherever you are is where I wanna be
Like this
Cross my heart, girl, I'ma ride with ya
Like this
I gon' be the frame, you can be the picture
