I've only been in love one time and haven't been there since

So, please do have some patience for my inexperience

And I'm still young so, love, I may not know quite how to give it

And I've had so few loves that I might not know how to live it

So what if my eyes shimmer or my body's great to see?

It makes me no more mature enough to fit you, mentally

See, all I know are the basic things like love, honesty, trust

But, other more `adult' things, I don't know—they are a must

Like knowing how to hold on and when I should let go

Or giving you the patience to let your feelings grow

I do, however, keep an open mind, but that could fail me

For when you've used me once, you've lost my trust…well, partially

See, I believe the `second chance' is complimentary

But, after that, it won't be “once, twice, three times a lady”

Which means don't take for granted that I tried our love again

Or that I may be nicer than the “average woman”

Take my kindness for no weakness—don't even try to do it!

If you cross me, you've lost me! The second time, you really blew it

The greatest thing that could've ever happened to you

Well, that's what you might be losing if you play me for a fool

Because I'm new at love, there's not room for spite or betray

I've only had three men in life so I'm “fresh” anyway

I may have left them bitter but I can say this, truly

They gave me slight experience to reuse, if I need

Which means, yes, my guards are up; and whey should they never be?

Hey, you may be `Mr. Right', but I can't tell by what I see

So, I come into love fresh with things to offer to it, yes

Intelligent conversation, sense of humor, happiness

Generosity, courtesy, and lots of caring, if you please

And when the time is right, I'll give sensuality

Unlike the type of women with no goals, if you're with me

You'll find I have a lot…just shortages of money

But, yet and still, I'm no gold digger; I don't go “Gimme, gimme!”

I only ask for what I need and hope it's not extreme

And I believe that talk is cheap so just know that lies are not legit

For in this day and age, don't talk about it, be about it

And I come into relationships with expectations, too

Don't do anything to me you wouldn't want done back to you

If I give you my trust, don't use it

And, my love, never abuse it

If its trouble you want started, come prepared if you so choose it

Don't come to me just for my sex and say you love me out of lust

Don't try to smother me or you may get `The Bubble Bust'

But, don't you ignore me either; you'll always hear this stated

These five important words: “I want to be appreciated”

I need patience; if there're issues that you find with me, please say

whatever there is needed to be done—in a nice way

`Cause, if you hold your feelings in and then blow up on me one night

all that I'll think you're doing is just fussing out of spite

I need to know you, too, so friendship goes without my saying

So we can form a common bond before all love's displayed...and…

I need security that I'm your lady—no one else

That past loves are forgotten or put up on the shelf

I need freedom from obsession, jealously—be secure

that if you treat me fairly I could grow to love you more

And never ever hit me; I'll never give a reason to

be beaten down in public or receive a private bruise

Keep all that in mind and we can be the perfect team

For Heavens' sake, just know what you are getting into with me

A great girl to trust because my nature is just sweet

I feel I could be the type of woman to make your life complete
