THIS COULD BE US

You ready?
Nah, 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, oh

This could be us
But you be playing
This could be us
But you keep on fooling around
You're the cage to my dove
I'm just saying
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
Ain't ready for us (no)
'Cause what I got make you weak in the knees
Take your energy (ooh, baby)
Make you sleep for a week
Sex with me ain't enough
That's why we gotta do it metaphysically

(This could be us) ooh
This could be us
(This could be us)
This could be us

I, I know you're loving your freedom
'Cause your freedom (freedom) is paying your 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 (show you right)

This could be us (yes)
But you be playing (oh, yeah)
This could be us (you sure enough could be)
But you keep on fooling 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) gonna, gonna go, gonna
Over the bridge (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 it's good, that's all she thinking of

(Metaphysical cookie licking cream) sleep alone if you wanna
(Nothing mystical, let me lick the kitty clean)
But like a new pair of shoes
(After that, you can put me on my back)
You gon' wanna show me off to your friends
(Look for candy in my purple psychedelic pimp sack) when I, ooh
This right here, this could be us
Ooh-oh, ooh-oh

This could be, this could be us (oh, yeah)
But you be playing (yes, you do now)
This could be us (honey, honey, honey)
But you keep on fooling around
To see that you're the cage to my dove (yes)
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 (this could be us) 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
Ooh baby, yeah, this could be, this could be
This could be us, but you don't have time for me no more
