You didn't have to love me like you did
But you did, yes you did, and I thank you
You didn't have to squeeze me like you did
But you did, yes you did, and I thank you

If you took your love somewhere else
I wouldn't know what it meant to be loved to death
You make me feel, like I've never felt
Kisses so good I've got to holler for help

You didn't have to squeeze me like you did
But you did, yes you did, and I thank you
You didn't have to hold me like you did
But you did, yes you did, and I thank you

Every day you find something new
To pull out your bag and fine perfume
You got me trying to do new things, too
Just so I could keep up with you

Thank you baby

You didn't have to shake it like you did
But you did, yes you did, and I thank you
You didn't have to make it like you did
But you did, yes you did, and I thank you

All my life I've been short changed
Without your love baby, it's a crying shame
Now I know what the girls were talking about
When they say that you

Ooh, I wanna thank you, baby
Thank you, honey
I've got to thank you, oh 
Baby, hey yeah
