  • Love you like a brother
    Treat you like a friend
    Respect you like a lover
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that
    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that (yeah)

    If you be the cash
    I'll be the rubber band
    You be the match
    I will be a fuse, boom
    Painter, baby, you could be the muse
    I'm the reporter, baby, you could be the news
    'Cause you're the cigarette and I'm the smoker
    We raise a bet 'cause you're the joker
    Checked off, you are the chalk
    And I can be the blackboard
    You can be the talk
    And I can be the walk, yeah

    Even when the sky comes falling
    Even when the sun don't shine
    I got faith in you and I
    So put your pretty little hand in mine
    Even when we're down to the wire, babe
    Even when it's do or die
    We could do it, baby, simple and plain
    'Cause this love is a sure thing

    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that
    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that
    You could bet that, never gotta sweat that

    You could be the lover, I'll be the fighter, babe
    If I'm the blunt (uh), you could be the lighter, babe
    Fire it up
    Writer, baby, you could be the quote, yeah (uh)
    If I'm the lyric, baby, you could be the note (uh), record that
    Saint I'm a sinner (uh), prize I'm a winner (uh)
    And it's you, what did I do to deserve that?
    Paper, baby, I'll be the pen
    Say that I'm the one 'cause you are a ten
    Real and not pretend

    Even when the sky comes falling (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    Even when the sun don't shine (yeah)
    I got faith in you and I
    So put your pretty little hand in mine
    Even when we're (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    Down to the wire, baby
    Even when it's do or die (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    (You could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    We could do it baby, simple and plain
    (You could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    'Cause this love is a sure thing

    Uh, now rock with me, baby
    Let me hold you in my arms
    Talk with me babe, yeah, yeah
    Uh, now rock with me baby
    Let me hold you in my arms
    Talk with me babe, yeah, yeah

    This love between you and I is simple as pie, baby
    Yeah, it's such a sure thing (it's such a sure thing)
    Oh, it such a sure thing (it's such a sure thing)

    Even when (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    The sky comes falling
    Even when (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    The sun don't shine
    (You could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    I got faith in you and I
    So put your pretty little hand in mine (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    Even when (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    We're down to the wire, babe
    Even when (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    It's do or die (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    We could do it, baby, simple and plain
    (You could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
    'Cause this love is a sure thing

    Love you like a brother (you could bet that, never gotta sweat that)
