Oooh baby pretty girl

[Verse 1]
Wasted so much time for ya
Though I think I must have been blind for ya
Almost lost my mind for ya
Tell myself I would die for ya
I hit that ball thinkin' How am I gonna get you back
All weekend.(yeah)
Guess That's your decision, You should
Think about what your missin'
All day, all night.
When it's the right time
Imma find my baby.
Yeaah (uh)
And to thinking like all day all night
If it's the right time imma find you Baby
(Yeaah)

[Chorus]
So I get the finest clothes I can find on retail
And I try to pay attention to everysingle detail
I just wanna girl that still looks good without make up
And when I find her I Promise I will never break up
Never gonna break up [6 x]
(nooh nooh)

[Verse 2]
All this time I lost on you
Played it cool mention to floss on ya
Had a few girls I turned down
??????? they woulda learn now
I Hope you ????? For me
Hoping that your loneliness burns for me
Cause im ok now
Gimme time ima show you
How to get down

[Chorus]
Ima get the finest clothes I can find on retail
And I try to pay attention to everysingle detail
I just wanna girl that still looks good without make up
And when I find her I Promise I will never break up
Never gonna break up [6 x]
(nooh nooh)

[Verse 3]
And if your wondering how im doing baby.
You could be sure that..

And if your wondering what im doing babe

And I try to pay attention to everysingle detail
I just wanna girl that still looks good without make up
And when I find her I Promise I will never break up..

[Outro]
Never gonna break up

[VERSE 1]
Is it the accent, the height, or the way she walkin
Am I, am I dreamin or am I sleepwalkin
Got my arms outstretched so I don't bump into her
Silly me, now I'm so into her
Fashion, to her style of dress
And I'm lookin in the mirror like do I look fresh?
Do I, do I look fresh enough to get her
If I see her one time then I wont forget her
Cuz I, I took a picture mentally
When I pulled up in a black on black Ben-t-ley
And I, I really feel like she was meant for me
If she wasn't then I know she was sent for me
Cuz she, she's the only one that made me chase
Got me singin love songs like Babyface
And I tried to one-night her but she made me wait...
She made me wait.....

[CHORUS]
And so I think she got somethin, she got somethin
Think she got somethin, somethin that I like
Somethin I like
So I think she got somethin, she got somethin
Yea, she got somethin, somethin that I like, ohhh
(Now break it down like)
She's...got that somethin
She got that somethin, that I like
(Say it again like)
She's got that somethin
She got that somethin that I like

[VERSE 2]
I slow it down before I pick her up
It's eight o'clock now and we datin
Inevitably dude's be hatin
But I, I still gotta flaunt my chick
I laugh, no surprise that they want my chick
She's, more than they can comprehend
British dude's idolize when they copy him
He's just too witty, game is too gritty
Look at his track record man there's too many
Tens, that's too many to count
I spend, that's at any amount
No matter the sum homie, got the cash to cover it
And when I'm wantin seeds, she'll be fast to mother it
Yea, just so she can take my ends
Would I let her do it? hmm, well that depends
Can she raise a young king? My blood is royal
And if she can't man, it ain't a thing, let's boil her

[CHORUS]
And so I think she got somethin, she got somethin
Think she got somethin, somethin that I like
Somethin I like
So I think she got somethin, she got somethin
Yea, she got somethin, somethin that I like, ohhh
(Now break it down like)
She's...got that somethin
She got that somethin, that I like
(Say it again like)
She's got that somethin
She got that somethin that I like

[Spoken]

Oh, We Gettin' It Right This Time.
Uh, Act Grown Or Go Home (hahaha).

And When Your Love Comes Down, It Won't Stop.

Where did you come from, where have you been? (all my life?)
Baby I've missed you in the past (oh I don't know but I..)
I've always known you not to pretend (I can't hide)
All I can do know is hope it lasts

Yeah cuz when I'm looking into your eyes
I get hypnotized
I want you (cuz I feel you want me too)
You got me wondering how you feel
Wondering what you will or won't do
Though it feels like it's make believe

Tell me something?

Is it real love?
You might be the one that I'm waitin on
I hope that it's real girl yeah
So is it real love?
You might be the one that I'm waitin on, waitin on, waitin on

Now you just need someone to hold you (through the night)
You shouldn't have to sleep alone (no use in waistin time)
Don't let the recent past control you (free your mind)
When your in need pick up the phone (I got it when you want it)

cuz when I'm looking into your eyes
I get hypnotized
I want you (cuz I feel you want me too)
You got me wondering how you feel
Wondering what you will or won't do
Though it feels like it's make believe

Tell me something?

Is it real love?
You might be the one that I'm waitin on
I hope that it's real girl yeah
So is it real love?
You might be the one that I'm waitin on, waitin on, waitin on

[No lyrics]

I hear them talking 'cause they seen us around
Got them guessing about what's really going down, yeah
And if they find out that we do what we do
Girl, I doubt if they'd believe it was true, yeah

So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Go through the motions, so we don't blow the cover, yeah

You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl

Indiscretion makes this love affair sweet
Without these secrets it would feel so incomplete, yeah
So we should keep our quiet nights between us
So we'll retain our urgency when we touch

So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Go through the motions, so we don't blow the cover, yeah

You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl

Now you can rock to the rhythm of the beat, now don't stop
And as long as you do yours I'll do my job, yeah
'Cause I really like this good thing that we've got
So we'll just keep it a secret, baby, you're not my girl

So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
If we continue this way we'll only just hurt each other
So I'm thinking that we should just be good friends
Let's just keep it a secret baby, you're not my girl

You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
On your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl

You could call my phone, you could swing over my way
All your nights alone, you could come over my place
If he treats you wrong, let me give it to you my way
Just remember that you're not, you're not my girl

Intro:

[Hook]

without you i'd be nothing [4x]
(oh oh oooh)
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing i wouldn't be
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing

[Verse]

i might forget what city i'm in
might have a mistress and a girlfriend
girlfriend would find out and let me go
then i'd be lost and end up alone
i'm just a wayward son of a preacher
you are a queen that's how i should treat you
lessons in love you are my teacher (eey eey)
my teacher you are
and i do it for love (and i do it for good)
cause you gave me your heart (like i knew that you would)
and you bring out the best (and i hope that you know)
so i gotta confess (listen)

[Hook]

without you i'd be nothing [4x]
(oh oh oooh)
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing i wouldn't be
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing

[Verse]

i wouldn't be nothing i wouldn't even have a answer
would need a doctor so i can treat her like a cancer
give me the medicine ima put it through my arm slow
listen to Whitney she singing where do broken hearts go
do they go, do they go, where they go baby
(no body knows)
where do the broken hearts go
where do they go, do they go, where they go baby
(no body knows)
and i do it for love (and i do it for good)
cause you gave me your heart (like i knew that you would)
and you bring out the best (and i hope that you know)
so i gotta confess (listen)

[Hook]

without you i'd be nothing [4x]
(oh oh oooh)
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing i wouldn't be
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing

[Bridge]

i'd be nothing
i'd be just an empty shell (looking for you)
i'd be washed up on the shore (while the wind whips on me bay)
and if you could understand i would be just half a man
without yoou (i would be nothing)
without yoou
i would be nothing

[Hook]

without you i'd be nothing
(without you bay)
without you i'd be nothing
(without you bay)
without you i'd be nothing
(without you baby, i would be..listen)
without you i'd be nothing
(oh oh oooh)
i wouldn't be nothing at all
(wouldn't be nothing)
i wouldn't be nothing i wouldn't be
(ooo ooo ooo baby ah)
i wouldn't be nothing at all
(wouldn't be nothing)
i wouldn't be nothing
(i wouldnt be)
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing i wouldn't be
i wouldn't be nothing at all
i wouldn't be nothing
(nothing)

Wasn't looking for anyone.
Were you sent here for me?
Did you come and take away my lonely?
Now that I got you I'm begging you baby, don't leave.
Don't leave. Stay here with me.
This is real baby, give me your undivided.
Everything that was wrong, girl, you right it.
You knew just what I needed and you provided.
Yes you provided.
~Bridge~
And now I'm so overjoyed.
Girl, you fill my void.
And you got a special place here.
You put joy inside my tears.
And this isn't make believe.
You found your way to me.
(and now) You deserve angel wings.
Of that I'm certain.
Yes I do believe that
~Chorus~
Baby I'm yours, baby you're my guardian angel.
I'm tellin you it feels like,
Baby I'm yours, and baby you're my
guardian angel.
~And if there's anything that you need imma give that to you.
Yes, I know I was lost before I knew you.
Now you're here and together, we're gonna get through.
We gon make it through girl.
Said, I got you no matter the situation.
I'll encourage you. I'll be your motivation.
And whenever you need inspiration you can look to me.
Oh and now,
~Bridge~
~Chorus~
We'll protect one another.
Be good to one another.
and we'll love one another,
take care of one another.
We'll protect one another.
Be good to one another.
and we'll love one another,
take care of one another.
And I feel like...
~Chorus~

Something about the way you look at me
Tells me that I just might be worthy
Of feeling you despite uncertainty
Despite the way that you might hurt me

I wanna take your love and mix it with mine
And maybe have a cocoa baby
I just wanna put this all on the line
Make sure that you appreciate me

If it's a question of your pride
Put that thing aside
Just let your guard down now
Lemme show you how much I want you

Oh, take my hand and dim the light
For the rest of the night
We'll be making love
The way that we're supposed to, yeah

I wanna give you all my love
Even if I don't have all your trust
I wanna give you all my love
Even if I don't have all your trust

I know it's hard to trust me, why should you?
Especially after what you've been through
I know it's hard to believe, I'm not the same
You think about it when I'm with you

Everything that he did, throw it away
'Cause I know how to love you better
Give me your heart, the past will fade
And we gon' get it right together

If it's a question of your pride
Then put that thing aside
Just let your guard down now
Lemme show you how much I want you

Baby, just take my hand and dim the light
'Cause for the rest of the night
We'll be making love
The way that we're supposed to

I wanna give you all my love
Even if I don't have, yeah, all your trust
I wanna give you all my love
Even if I don't have all your trust

I'm thinking we should
I'm thinking we should turn the lights down
I'm thinking we should
I'm thinking we should turn the lights down, yeah

I'm thinking we should
Thinking we should turn the lights down
Turn them down, turn them down
Turn them down

'Cause I wanna give you all my love
Even if I don't have all your trust
I wanna give you all my love
Even if I don't have all your trust

You introduce me to life that I've never known
When I'm by your side that's when I'm feelin' home
And my only attempt is to make you smile
I promise

So believe what I say when I say I'm real
'Cause there ain't no mistake in the way I feel
Baby, open your heart and accept this love
I give you

Over the others, over my pride
Over the faults I have in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you, I choose you

Over the others, over my pride
'Cause you're the best thing in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you, yeah

Said I knew it was right, so I took the chance
Disregarded the challenge of the circumstance
Now you're too big a part of me to let you go
I promise, yeah

So despite the way that I make mistakes
And despite the direction this love may take
You can always be sure of me, just have faith
I got you, this much is true

Over the others, over my pride
Over the faults I have in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you, I choose you

Over the others, over my pride
'Cause you're the best thing in my life
I choose you, I choose you
I choose you

[No lyrics]

[VERSE 1:]
I think that it would maybe be better if we went our separate ways
Cause our love's just not the same and we're doin' such strange things
You don't even call no more - you're driftin' away
Sometimes I wish we could go back and relive the better days
So I think it's best if we promise

[HOOK:]
I promise not to call you if you don't call me, baby, it's all right
I promise I won't - I think it's better if we don't
I won't call you no more, if you don't call me no more
Let's make that promise and maybe we can move on, girl

[VERSE 2:]
Now I think it would be better if you and I spent some time apart
Cause I'm so afraid that we were wrong from the very start, baby
You don't even know no more - the reason you stay
Sometimes I wish we could go back and relive the better days
So that's why I'm makin this promise...

[HOOK:]
I promise not to call you if you don't call me, baby, it's all right
I promise I won't - I think it's better if we don't
I won't call you no more, if you don't call me no more
Let's make that promise and maybe we can move on, girl

[BRIDGE:]
Girl our love's so cold, it feels like winter
If we stop right now I think it's better

[HOOK:]
I promise not to call you if you don't call me, baby, it's all right
I promise I won't - I think it's better if we don't
I won't call you no more, if you don't call me no more
Let's make that promise and maybe we can move on, girl

[OUTRO:]
I'll say I'm not gonna call you
If you say "I'm not gonna call you"
Yeah, yeah...
