Sweetheart, I've been tryin' so hard to get over you
Just simply can't
'Cause the love we shared through the years
Meant so much to me

All I'm lookin' for is just a serious relationship
Someone I can hold all my life
Why don't you give me that commitment
Let's settle down

Let's chill
Don't be afraid me
I'm the one that is scared
But I promise everything will be alright

Come closer
Let me talk to you

Let's chill
(Ho, ho, baby, hey...hey...)
Let's chill
(Let's chill, baby)

From the first time I saw your face
Girl, I knew I had to have you
I wanted to wrap you with my warm embrace
Visions of your lovely face

All my love is for you
Whatever you want I will do
You're the only one I want in my life
For you I'll make that sacrifice, ho

Let's chill
Let's settle down (That's what I want)
That's what I want to do (Just me and you)
Just me and you (Baby)

Let's chill (Let's chill)
Let's settle down (Come here, baby)
That's what I want to do (That's all, that's all)
Just me and you

I'm so happy to have you here
Standing right by my side
Is it a dream or reality
If it's a fantasy, please don't wake me

All my love is for you
Whatever you want I will do
You're the only one I want in my life
For you I'll make that sacrifice, so baby, let's

Let's chill (Let's chill)
Let's settle down (Settle down, baby)
That's what I want to do (That's all I want to do)
Just me and you (Ho)

Let's chill (Let's chill, baby)
Let's settle down (Oh, oh)
That's what I want to do (I want to do)
Just me and you

Come here, baby
Come lay next to me
Let's forget about the past and think about the future
Let's get together, baby
Let's stay together
Ho...oh...let's chill, baby

Let's chill
Let's settle down (Settle down)
That's what I want to do (All in my mind)
Just me and you (Is to be with you, baby)

Let's chill (So let's chill)
Let's settle down (Come on, baby)
That's what I want to do (That's all I want to do with you)
Just me and you

Forever and ever
Ever and ever
Ever and ever
Always

Forever and ever
Ever and ever
Ever and ever
Always
