Chorus: Girl it¡¯s alright, baby 'Cause it¡¯s there in your eyes yeah I can see that you want me By the way that you smile Are you still down for me Left once again at home Another night on your own Ain't no fun in lovin if you¡¯re lovin alone How does it feel to be useless, oh no Can you recall how close we used to be then Can you still remember those feelings again Seems like everytime I see you There¡¯s a tear in your eye Time to make some decisions Or go dying inside Rap: Tell ¡¯em all call me a fool But I¡¯m stuck in this love thing Plus I¡¯m over heatin¡¯ from the rush Our tongues touch Kissin' fellin' fireworks Watch the sky I makes you smile But you'd rather have what makes you cry Say goodbye and leave now With my heart on my sleeve Memories now what I found is you Still care you had feelings And they¡¯re still there baby Girl keep it real here Are you still down? Chorus: Girl it¡¯s alright, baby 'Cause it¡¯s there in your eyes yeah I can see that you want me By the way that you smile Are you still down for me Remember that evening I knew that you were too scared To go all the way But you did it to please me You were crying it was raining When you gave it to me The more I see you The more that I feel inside And I know one day You¡¯ll make it back to where you can fly Watch time go, don¡¯t cry Tomorrow brings better days Let me dry your eyes And take your burden away Rap: Only once in a lifetime Touch my soul go slow Baby boo don¡¯t rush the flow Got me all weak baby But I¡¯m strong in parts More bounce to the ounce With the longest sparks Gettin' mine like fine wine Measured in time Many other brothers loved you But the pleasure was mine Mama taught me how To love a woman properly sprung We committed so I hit it So it¡¯s properly done Are you still down? Girl it's alright baby 'Cause it's there in your eyes yeah I can see that you want me By the way that you smile Are you still down for me? Ad Lib Repeat to Fade
