You ready? Naw, you ain't ready (no you ain't ready) I mean ready for us You know you want me like a new pair of shoes
Ooh uh, this could be us But you be playin' This could be us But you keep on foolin' around You're the cage to my dove I'm just saying Forever and ever in love Oh baby yeah, this could be us
You know you want me like a new pair of shoes
(This could be, us) This could be us
You, you say you ain't ready Ready to go steady Ain't ready for us (no) 'Cause what I got make you weak in in the knees Take your energy (oh baby) Make you sleep all week Sex with me ain't enough That's why we gotta do it metaphysically
(This could be, us) This could be us (This could be, us) This could be us
I, I know you're loving your freedom 'Cause yo freedom (freedom) is payin' yo bills? (Oh funky dolla?) Yes it is Boyfriends, you think you don't need 'em But in the middle of the cold, cold night I think you will (sho' you right)
This could be us, yes But you be playin' (oh yeah) This could be us (you sho' nuff could be) But you keep on foolin' around
We, we come up on a crossroad And we got to decide (got to decide) Which way to turn, (Which way yes which way to turn) Are we gonna go (are we gonna go) Go (are we gonna) Over the bridge (over the bridge, over the bridge) Before, before it burns (Don't you let it burn, let it burn, baby)
This could be us This could be us, oh yeah (This could be us) Oh you gotta stop playing' baby
Everybody knows, everybody knows That a woman needs love, L-O-V-E (love) (Like a river flow, like a river flow) inside If its good that's all she thinking of (Metaphysical)
Sleep alone if you wanna (nothing mystical xxxxx) But like a new pair of shoes (And after that) You gonna wanna show me off to your friends (can't believe my purple psychedelic pimp slap) When I ooohhh This right here This cloud be us
This could be us (This could be us) oh yeah (But you would be playing) yes you do now (This could be us) honey, honey, honey But you keep on foolin' around See that you're the cage to me dove I'm just saying (I'm just saying) Forever and ever in love Ooh Baby yeah, this could be us
(This could be us) This could be us This could be us, yes could be us
This could be us
This could be us
Can't you see it baby You're the cage to my dove Only one I been dreaming of Forever and ever in love Ohh baby yeah, this could, this could be, this could be us
But you don't have time for me no more
