    This is such a great song. The reason this song is so great is beacuse it is relatable from a woman and a man's point of view. What man or woman wouldn't want someone that they can trust and have they back and never do them wrong. Black men and women are so busy fighting over who is stronger that we totally forget to love each other. Listening to this song its what I want in a woman. This song is great. There is so much truth in these lyrics.

    "I want a love to take me
    As I am
    not make me compromise myself
    Or be like no one else
    Fear is not the matter
    I would so much rather open up my heart
    And just lay down my guard..."

    So So True:
    This woman is growing weary
    Of having to be so strong
    Of having to pretend I'm made of stone
    So I won't end up with no broken bones
    I can't fight every battle alone
    I want someone to lift me
    Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head
    Say words that should be said
    Girl SAY THAT!! I'm sick of singing the soldier song too!! BUT still ever so hopefull :)

    @TheGraySwan 10 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Sometimes the gifts under the tree are a substitute for the love not given throughout the year! One must have Christ JESUS in their heart in order to love! Godly love is the Greatest gift & the only gift that's forever!
