Ex Factor (A Simple Mix) Lyrics

The sweetest thing I've ever known 

Was like the kiss on the collarbone 

Soft caress of happiness 

The way you walk your style of dress 

I wish I didn't get so weak 

Ooo baby just to hear you speak 

Makes me argue just to see 

How much you're in love with me 

See like a queen a queen upon her throne 

Chorus 

Chorus 

It was the sweet sweet sweetest thing I know 

It was the sweet sweet sweetest thing I know 

I get mad when you walk away (don't walk away) 

So I tell you leave, when I mean stay 

Warm as the sun dipped in black 

Fingertips on the small of my back 

More valuable than all I own 

Like your precious, precious, precious, precious dark skin tone 

Chorus 

It was the...Ah 

I tried to explain 

Ah...but baby, it's in vain 

Speaking on my mother's phone 

The touching makes me think I'm grown, (you ain't grown) 

Sweet prince of the ghetto 

Your kisses taste like armoretto 

Intoxicating, oh, so intoxicating 

How sad, how sad that all things come to an end 

But then again, I'm, I'm not alone 

Chorus
