[Chorus 1]
(We done came a long way)
From bein' young and in love to it's real serious
(We done came a long way)
Ain't no need to break up, come to think about it
(We done came a long way)
From walkin' to the bus to two cars for us
(We done came a long way)
We done come a long, long way

[Verse 2]
Maybe I should tighten up
Or maybe should I lighten up?
And show you that I got your back
Even though sometimes I act (even though sometimes I act)
Like I don't hear what you're sayin' now (sayin' now)
Maybe I should stop playin' round
Show you I'm a real man (real man)
And hopefully you'll understand (understand)
That I ain't goin' nowhere (I ain't goin' nowhere)
Ain't no need to take it there (take it there)
Don't want you put them bags away
We done came a long way

[Chorus 2]
(We done came a long way)
From a one bedroom to a maid with a broom
(We done came a long way)
Ain't no need to break up, come to think about it
(We done came a long way)
From meetin' both of your parents and to a stroller and a carriage
(We done came a long way)
We done came a long way (a long way)

[Bridge]
Sometimes it gets rough
And you go through some things (yeah)
Sometimes it seems like too much (too much)
Girl, but we got to stop and think (think)
One day I hope you wear my weddin' ring
'Cause only you know where we've been
And you know we've come too far, yeah
'Cause you were there
When I was set down in the ghetto
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
We've come too far to turn around (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
