THIS COULD BE US

You ready?

No, you ain't ready

I mean, ready for us

You know you want me

Like a new pair of shoes

Ooh, oh, 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

What you're sayin'

Forever and ever in love

Ooh, 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

You ain't ready for us

No

'Cause what I've got make you weak in the knees

Take your energy, make you sleep for a 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 lovin' your freedom

'Cause your freedom's payin' your bills

(Wanna lock you down harder)

Yes, it is

Boyfriends

You think you don't need 'em

But in the middle of the cold, cold night

I think you will (Show you right)

This could be us

But you be playin'

This could be us

But you keep on foolin' around

We

We've come upon a crossroad

And we got to decide

Which way to turn

(Which way, which way to turn)

Are we gonna go, gonna, gonna go

Over the bridge, over the bridge?

Before, before it burns, burns, burns

Ohh, yeah, oh

This could be us, oh yeah

This could be us

Oh, you gotta stop playin', baby

Everybody knows, everybody knows

That a woman needs love (L-O-V-E, love)

Let the river flow, like a river flow (Inside)

If it's good, that's all she thinkin' of

(Metaphysical quick and you can dream)

Sleep alone if you wanna

(Nothing mystical, let me lick you pretty clean)

But like a new pair of shoes

(And after that, you can put me on my back)

You're gon' wanna show me off to your friends

(Can't believe my purple psychedelic pimp slap)

When I, ooh

This right here, this could be us

Ooh, ahh

This could be

This could be us, oh yeah

But you be playin', yes you do now

This could be us, honey, honey, honey

But you keep on foolin' around

Can't you see that you're the cage to my dove?

I'm just sayin', I'm just sayin'

Forever and ever in love

Ooh, baby, yeah, this could be us

This could be us

This could be us

This 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've been thinkin' of

Forever and ever in love

Ooh, baby, yeah, this could be, this could be

This could be us

This could be us, but you don't have

Time for me no more
