[Intro]
Lalala, lalala
Lalala, lalala
Lalala, lalala
Lalala, lalala...

1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2, 1

[Verse 1]
First, first time I looked into your eyes
I saw heaven, oh, heaven in your eyes
Everything I did before you, wasn't worth my while
It should've been you...you all the time
I do anything and everything to please you
You know how much I need you
You're always, always, always on my mind
On my mind, on my mind, on my mind

[Chorus]
And you're more than wonderful
More than amazing
The irreplaceable love of my life, oh yeah
You're so incredible, here in these arms of mine
The irreplaceable love of my life, oh yeah

[Bridge]
Sugar, you know, you know you're my one and only life
All I wanna do is be together
Sugar, you know, I'll never leave you, never leave you lonely
'Cause in your eyes, in your eyes I see forever
And ever, forever and ever, and ever, forever and ever
And ever, forever and...

Lalalalalalalalalala, lalalalalala
Y'all ain't ready for this tonight, you ain't even ready

[Verse 2]
You say you've seen too many things
That turn out to be too good to be true
Against your better judgment, opened up your heart
'Til you found that the joke was on you
But looking out on the rest of our lives
If we're gonna be together or apart
About the only way that I know how to come
Is right straight from my heart

[Chorus]
I want you now, I'll show you how
I can be the man you need me to be
I've been around but now I've found
That you're the only one for me
I need you so, I can't let go
Gonna be all that I can be
I want you still, I always will
'Cause you're the only one for me

[Verse 2]
Say you'll never fall again
You won't subject yourself to such pain
But if you give me half a chance, I'll win
I'll never leave you standing out in the rain
But if you think that I could look you in your face
And lie right through my teeth
Turn around and walk away
Cross my heart, girl, I care for you
And when I look into your eyes
I must say

[Chorus]
I want you now, I'll show you how
I can be the man that you need me to be
I've been around but now I've found
That you're the only one for me
I need you so and I can't let go
Gonna be all that I can be
And I want you still, I always will
'Cause you're the only one for me

[Outro]
Hey hey, Los Angeles
It is not lost on me that you could be doing anything tonight
And the fact that you're here with us tonight, I thank you from the bottom of my heart, I do
Thank you, thank you, thank you
