For love, you pay the price   You give it up, you sacrifice   And if necessary, you compromise   Sometimes it's bittersweet   You've got to try eight days a week   To create a good enough love to keep      You see, hearts belong to fire   So does her love   She burns me up with desire      My girl's love is right on time   Sweet and sweet and ever kind   She's so fine   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      Even when I come home late at night   We don't fuss, we never fight   'Cause the girl loves me to the line   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      It was out of my hands   I did my best, please understand   I was late for one of our evening plans   Champagne, dinner for two   With candlelight, she set the mood   And there wasn't anything I could do      But she is so forgiving   The one thing I know is   It's off her love I'm living      That girl's love is right on time   Sweeter than sweet and ever kind   She's so fine   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      And even when I come home late at night   We don't fuss, we never fight   'Cause the girl loves me to the line   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      When I go out to play   She doesn't mind if I'm a little bit late   She knows I think about her face   'Til I get home, 'til I get back home      What we gonna do tonight?   It's raining heavy and it's cold outside   So let's just love until we get things right   And waste a whole lotta time, I don't mind      She don't mind and I don't mind   She don't, don't   She don't, don't, she don't      I tell her the things she can't repeat   Makes her little heart just skip a beat   She blush a little bit and then I find   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      Even though our love is c'est si bon   Sometimes I like to be alone   Ring the girl on her private line   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      Go to work early, come back late   Outta my head, can't concentrate   Sometimes my love is a waste of time   But she doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      She's better ever than she used to be   Loving her is no mystery   Sometimes I'm not so sweet and kind   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind      When I call her in the middle of the day   She's busy at work but it's okay   Not too busy to give me time   She doesn't, she doesn't, she don't mind
