lyrics

Baby, I thought I might give you a ring, maybe at six or maybe one that’s green
Ain’t decided yet
Cause loving you girl is like cicada singing
It started in the summer and every year it keeps on ringing, ringing and ringing

When I’m with you

I used to thirst for fame and fortune but
Now all I want is the rain to stop pouring
oh please God

When I’m with you

All I used to talk about was running away leaving this place but
Now that you’ve come around
I guess I’d stay just to see your face
Yeah it’s true
I don’t need anybody but you
Oh no baby, oh no baby not when I’m with you, naw

When I’m with you
