Something Special
Usher · Here I Stand [2008]
Ooooohhhh...
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
This one's for the lovers
Follow me
Clearly, this is new for me
Get excited when you're here, my dear
Make no mistake you are all I see, sugar
My vision's never been so clear
We both know I been runnin so long
This time I won't let me leave
Please be patient
Hesitation aside
We're almost where we need to be
But in the meantime, let me say what's on my mind
Baby, I....
I think we've got somethin' special
Girl, you and me
Together, we'll take over the world
You know I love ya
I need you so
So happy I just wanna let everybody know
Think back to the time
When I was scared to let it show
Havin' too much fun with this and that one
Now that you're mine (huh yeah..)
Somewhere along the way, everything fell in place
Oooohh...I'm so proud of how you represent me, baby
Whether rockin' Armani, Dolce Gabbana,
Roberto Cavalli, Louis, or Gucci, girl
No matter what you wear, you do your own wit it
I'll feel the same years from here
But in the meantime, let me say what's on my mind
Ooooh...listen
I think we've got somethin' special
Girl, you and me
Together, we'll take over the world
You know I love ya
I need you so
So happy I just wanna let everybody know
That I think we've got somethin' special
Girl, you and me
Together, we'll take over the world
You know I love ya
I need you so
So happy I just wanna let everybody know
You know I need ya, baby (I love you)
Girl, you know (repeat x 3)
Do you know I need ya, baby (repeat x 4)
Girl, now that you're mine
Somewhere along the way, everything fell in place
Heyyy...
I think we've got somethin' special
Girl, you and me
Together, we'll take over the world
You know I love ya
I need you so
So happy I just wanna let everybody know
I think we've got somethin' special
Girl, you and me
Together, we'll take over the world
You know I love ya
Girl, I need you so
I'll never, never let you go
Noooooo....
You're so special
