Let me tell you why I love him      'Cause he is the truth, said he is so real   And I love the way that he makes me feel   And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly   Because his light it shines so bright, I wouldn't lie      I remember the very first day that I saw him   I found myself immediately intrigued by him   It's almost like I knew this man from another life   Like back then maybe I was his husband maybe he was my wife      And even things I don't like about him are fine with me   'Cause it's not hard for me to understand him 'cause he's so much like me   And it's truly my pleasure to share his company   And I know that it's God's gift to breathe the air he breathes      'Cause he is the truth, said he is so real   And I love the way that he makes me feel   And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly   Because his light it shines so bright, I wouldn't lie, no      How can the same man that makes me so mad   (Do you know what he did?)   Turn right around and kiss me so soft?   (Girl, do you know what he did?)   If he ever left me I wouldn't even be sad, no   'Cause there's a blessin' in every lesson and I'm glad that I knew him at all      'Cause he is the truth, said he is so real   And I love the way that he makes me feel   And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly   Because his light, it shines so bright      I love the way he speaks   I love the way he thinks   I love the way that he treats his mama   I love that gap in between his teeth      I love him in every way   That a woman can love a man   From personal to universal   But most of all it's unconditional      You know what I'm talking about   That's the way I feel and I always will   There ain't no substitute for the truth   Either it is or isn't      ('Cause he is the truth)   You see the truth, it needs no proof   Either it is or it isn't   ('Cause he is the truth)      Now you know the truth by the way it feels   And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly   Because he is, yes he is   I wonder does he know
