Can I play for you baby 
Hey yo Woody  help me out  yeah 
Hey yo Jazz  you chill for a minute  ya know? 
Uh uh uh yeah 

You like that? 
Goin' sing you a song 
Listen 
Last night we had an argument 

Afterwards I'm feelin pretty bent 
Then I took a drink and I didn't think 
What was in store for me 
So I wrote a letter 

Dropped it on the bedroom floor 
I never felt this way before  no 
I grabbed my coat and closed the door baby, I'm sorry 
Baby I'm sorry (Oh yeah) 

Sorry for what I've done (Will you forgive me) 
Will you forgive me and let me be your only one 
'Cause you are 

[Chorus]
You are everything 
And I would give you anything 
Sorry for what I've done 
I want to be your only one 
Girl I apologize for all your tears 
When you cried, sorry for what I've done 
I want to be your only one 

(Sing it Jazz) 

Girl I apologize for all the tears 
And all the lies 
And if by chance just one more chance 
I swear Ill be the epitome of a good man 

Baby I'm sorry (I'm sorry) 
Sorry for what I've done (Baby) 
Will you forgive me (Hey, yeah) 
And let me be your only one 
'Cause yo are 

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, come on 
You are everything 
And everything is you 
You are everything 

Yo yo everything I do 
You are everything 
And everything is you 
You are everything 

Girl, you're everything I do 
You are everything 
And everything is you 
You are everything 

Girl, you're everything I do 
Everything I do 

[Chorus] 

You are everything 
And everything is you 
You are everything 
And everything is you
