Lil Wayne
How to Love
[Chorus]
You had a lot of crooks trying to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn’t never figure out
How to love, how to love
You had a lot of moments that didn’t last forever
Now you off in a corner, trying to put it together
How to love, how to love
For a second, you was here, now you over there
It's hard not to stare, the way you move your body
Like you never had a love, never had a love

[Verse 1]
When you was just a youngin', your looks were so precious
But now you're grown up, so fly it's like a blessing
But you can’t have a man look at you for five seconds
Without you being insecure
You never credit yourself, so when you got older
It seems like you came back ten times over
Now you’re sitting here in this damn corner
Looking through all your thoughts and looking over your shoulder

[Chorus]
See, you had a lot of crooks trying to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn’t never figure out
How to love, how to love
You had a lot of moments that didn’t last forever
Now you off in a corner, trying to put it together
How to love, how to love
For a second, you was here, now you over there
It's hard not to stare, the way you move your body
Like you never had a love, never had a love
[Verse 2]
Had a lot of dreams that transform to visions
The fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions
But it wasn’t your fault, wasn't in your intentions
To be the one here talking to me, be the one listening
But I admire your popping bottles and dipping
Just as much as you admire bartending and stripping
Baby, don’t be mad, nobody else tripping
You see a lot of crooks, yeah, them crooks still crooked

[Chorus]
See, you had a lot of crooks trying to steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn’t never figure out
How to love, how to love
You had a lot of moments that didn’t last forever
Now you off in a corner, trying to put it together
How to love, how to love

[Outro]
I want you to know
That you deserve the best
You’re beautiful
