From:
Ah, ah, ah
Things just ainīt the way that they used to be
Back in the day when a man meant security
Heīd be working hard all week
Baby kick back and throw up your feet
Let me fix you a treat
So it might be love and sweet
But heīs worth it
He deserves it
May not be perfect
But heīs all the man I need
Heīs ready and willing
Gives me the feeling, ah
And whenever weīre together
I know where I belong
[chorus:]
Itīs just the way he looks into your eyes
Love that man
Itīs the love he gives that makes you fantasize
Love that man
Itīs the time he takes to show you that he cares
And heīs always there (Heīs always always there)
Donīt you love that man (I know)
Things they ainīt the way they used to be
When a woman and a man work hard to be
Happy in love and stand together ooh
(Letīs stay that way forever)
Never give in to a fight
Just trying work it out
Never give up on him
Thatīs not what loveīs about
Stay true to your feelings
And remember
All the things heīs done for you
[Repeat Chorus]
Youīd better know Iīm talking about that old-school love
That everlasting feeling can never be too much
Somebody loves you heart and soul
Hold on, donīt stop
And never let him go
[Repeat Chorus]
