Yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah

I made the mark on February 1st
Between me and you, you can call it birth
The beginning of our universe
Remind me of Alicia Keys verse

I'm falling for you
I wish I had an opportunity to not do
What I did to hurt you
And now I'm here living with regrets

I know that it was my fault
I know that I got caught
So please don't lose your thoughts
Of me loving you and you loving me

I'm on the highway swerving
I ain't drunk but I'm about to hit the curb'n
Looking at the calendar getting nervous
Just a few more days to the first soul

This the day it all began
One place that it came together
More than a ring or a tattoo
Wish your birthmark that reminds me of you

So let's get on an airplane
Go back to where we began
To that point which is days apart
That stamp right next to your heart

To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart

To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart

Get the calendar, go to August 3rd
1st words stay, we heard our 1st words
First argument gotta let it go
Cause it could possibly affect what our future holds

Flipping pages now famous
Thinking back I ain't seen you in ages
Wishing that I coulda made it less painless
Brings me back right back to the same as

I know that it was my fault
I know that I got caught
So please don't lose your thoughts
Of me loving you and you loving me

I'm on the highway swerving
I ain't drunk but I'm about to hit the curb'n
Looking at the calendar getting nervous
Just a few more days to the first soul

This the day it all began
One place that it came together
More than a ring or a tattoo
Wish your birthmark that reminds me of you

So let's get on an airplane
Go back to where we began
To that point which is days apart
That stamp right next to your heart

To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart

To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart

January, February, March, April, May
June, July, August is just another day
September, October, November trying to find a way
In December to mark my calendar to meet again

If only we can go to that place where me and you know
There's no faith fronting cheating even lying
The time has come where we stand face to face

This the day it all began
One place that it came together
More than a ring or a tattoo
Wish your birthmark that reminds of you

So let's get on an airplane
Go back to where we began
To that point which is days apart
That stamp right next to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart

That stamp right next to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart

To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart, to your heart
To your heart
That stamp right next to your heart

Akon (born Aliaume Akon Thiam), is a Senegalese-American Grammy-nominated and platinum-selling rapper, songwriter, singer and businessman. His trademark is singing the word ‘convict’ at the beginning of most of his songs.

Akon was born in the US but spent much of childhood in the West African country Senegal. There, he learned to play five instruments including the djembe, guitar and drums. Early on Akon signed a deal with Elektra Records, but was later dropped from the label.

His career took off when Lil Zane introduced Akon to music executive DeVyne Stephens, who signed him to his label UpFront Records and became his longtime manager and business partner.
