LYRICS

Too good to be forgotten Too good to be forgotten Benny was a boy I met while walking home one day he made me forget my marbles he said he had another game to play. One thing led to another now what more can I say? Just one of the reasons why I got him by my side today. He was too good to be forgotten now what more can I say? Too good to be forgotten No I'll never let him get away. One in a million people shout it from the highest steeple. He's just one of the few got my mind got my life wrapped up in love! Well his hair was shiny long and black it smelled so sweet and bright I thought of him and dreamed of him all night after night. I love the ground he walks on the very air he breath I ain't never gonna leave him 'cause I am as happy as Ican be. He was too good to be forgotten now what more can I say? Too good to be forgotten No I'll never let him get away. One in a million people shout it from the highest steeple. He's just one of the few got my mind got my life wrapped up in love! He was too good to be forgotten now what more can I say? Too good to be forgotten No I'll never let him get away He was too good to be forgotten now what more can I say? Too good to be forgotten No I'll never let him get away He was too good to be forgotten now what more can I say? 15 million reasons why i never let him get away... He was too good to be forgotten now what more can I say? Too good to be forgotten No I'll never let him get away
