[Verse 1: Eric Roberson]
To know you is to need you
To write you and read you
To see you is to want you
To somehow confront you
But I know the dangers
Of having what my heart beats so much of
I know the dangers of love
[Hook: Phonte]
My sweet marzipan
You come as fast as you can
Of love's sweetest candy, why waste it?
You might not taste it again
[Verse 2: Eric Roberson]
To know you is to fear you
I've got to be near you
You shook me, and saved me
With love that you gave me
You gave me a reason
To get up in the morning
You gave me a reason to smile
[Hook]
[Guitar and horn solo]
[Verse 3: Eric Roberson]
To know you is to love
Place nothing above you
You have me, you hold me
You bought me and sold me
But I know the dangers
Of having what my heart beats so much of
I know the dangers of love
[Hook]
