Could Be You

Mario · Other Songs - Mario

Lisa had me thinkin' she was the only one for me

And Nikki had those angel eyes that changed my mind

The day she looked at me



Then outta nowhere you came walking in my life

You really blew my mind

Now I don't care about those other girls

It's only you I need in my world, baby



Excuse me, my cutie

Tell me, could you be the kinda shorty, just for me?

My everlasting meant to be, oh, girl

From the moment I saw you, my heart starts racing



I can't let you walk away

So won't you tell me, girl?

Could you be the kinda cutie that I need?

My one, my destiny, little lady, tell me could you be?



Not sayin' Trina wasn't cool

But you changed my point of view, baby

Chantel was nice, sweet and everything

But nothin' compares to you



You stole my heart and I'm torn apart

I don't wanna cause the pain

Girl, I would gladly throw it all away

For what I found in you today



Excuse me, my cutie

Tell me, could you be the kinda shorty just for me?

My everlasting meant to be, oh girl

From the moment I saw you, my heart starts racing



I can't let you walk away

Tell me, girl

Could you be the kinda cutie that I need?

My one, my destiny, little lady, tell me, could you be?



Oh, you could be my summer thang

And is it possible, tell me

Have I finally, finally found you, baby?



You see, I've been a playa but I'm tired of playin'

Been waitin' for a love like you and I'm not fakin'

You came into my life and I feel so brand new

I'm so thankful for you, girl, I swear



Excuse me, my cutie

Tell me, could you be the kinda shorty just for me?

My everlasting meant to be, oh girl

From the moment I saw you, my heart starts racing



I can't let you walk away

Tell me, girl

Could you be the kinda cutie that I need?

My one, my destiny, little lady, tell me, could you be?



Excuse me, my cutie

Tell me, could you be the kinda shorty just for me?

My everlasting meant to be, oh girl

From the moment I saw you, my heart starts racing
