He Proposed Lyrics
Kelly Price
Lyrics
It was Valentine's Day, February the 14th
My baby took me to a special place
Said he had a surprise for me
He told me to close my eyes
So that I could not see
And when I opened them up
He was on one knee reachin' for my hand
(That's when)
He proposed to me
He proposed with a diamond ring
I started crying
He placed it on my finger
And I said, "Yes"
He proposed to me
My baby proposed with a diamond ring
I couldn't believe it
I looked in his eyes
And I said, "Yes"
I'll never forget that night
It was 8: 43pm to be precise
He looked into my eyes and said
"You've made me the happiest man alive"
Soon as I got home
I called my mother on the phone
I said, "You won't believe
What just happened to me"
He proposed to me
He proposed with a diamond ring
I couldn't belive it
I started crying
He placed it on my finger
And I said, "Yes"
He proposed to me
My baby proposed with a diamond ring
I couldn't believe it
I looked in his eyes
And I said, "Yes"
'Cos we will be together baby
And this I know, this I know
See, we will love forever baby
My heart told me so
See, if you promise to hold me tight
And never let me go
We'll be husband and wife
For the rest of our lives
He proposed to me
He proposed with a diamond ring
I started crying
He placed it on my finger
And I said, "Yes"
He proposed to me
My baby proposed with a diamond ring
I couldn't believe it
I looked in his eyes
And I said, "Yes"
My baby asked me to love him
So I'm gonna love him
Said I couldn't believe it
I looked in his eyes
And I, I said, "Yes"
Forever
I said yes
I couldn't believe it, no, no
I said yes
He proposed and what a surprise
Ten karats nearly filled my eyes
So I started crying
Looked in his eyes
I said yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yes
My baby proposed to me
So I started crying
With tears of joy
