Lyrics I Wish I’d Written: Steady Love by India Arie

Steady Love

Ooh, steady love

Ooh, steady love

Ooh, steady love

Ooh, steady love

The way that he looks at me when he holds my hand

He wants everyone to know I'm his woman and he is my man

We can talk about anything, he's got nothing to hide

He's not afraid of his feelings, he's not a slave to his pride

He's givin' me love, so steady

He touches my heart, now I'm ready

He touches my soul and my spirit

He's givin' me love, so steady (love me so steady)

Ooh, steady love

Ooh, steady love

I have never met a man that I wanted to be his wife

And then he came along, it's so natural to make a life

'Cause he's a perfect compliment, 'cause I'm a boss in my world

But when we're together, he just makes me feel like his girl

He's givin' me love, so steady

He touches my heart, now I'm ready

He touches my soul and my spirit

He's givin' me love, so steady (love me so steady)

He puts every other man I've ever known to shame (known to shame)

I just wanna be with him, talk to him, sleep near him, walk with him

Be with him (every day)

I wanna be lovers and friends and mother his children

Make breakfast on Sunday and fight and then make up again

'Cause if life's gonna be crazy anyway

I wanna do it with him

Ooh, steady love (hey)

Ooh, oh, steady love

He's a good father, he's a good cook

He loves his basketball and he loves a good book

I'll tell you how I know he's the perfect one for me

'Cause he's a warrior in the streets, but he's a king in the sheets

He's givin' me love, so steady

He touches my heart, now I'm ready

He touches my soul and my spirit

He's givin' me love, so steady (love me so steady)

He's givin' me love, so steady

He touches my soul and my spirit
