Could U Be
Mario · Mario [2002]
Lisa had me thinkin she was the only one for me
and Nikki had those angel eyes that change my mind,
the day she looked at me(umm) then out of 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
Chorus
Excuse me my cu-tie
tell me Could U Be the kind of shorty just for me
my everlasting mean't to be (oh girl)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 (girl)
Could u be the kind of cu-tie that I need my destiney (lil Lady tell
me could u be)
Verse 2
Not sayin Trina wasn't cool
but you change 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 want to cause you pain
girl i would gladly throw it all away for what i found in you today
Chorus
Bridge:
Oh, you could be my summer thang(summer thang)
And Is it possible(tell me) have I finally, finally found you baby
I've been a player, but Im tired of playing
Been waiting for a love like you, and Im not faking
You came into my life and I feel so brand new,
Im so thankful for you girl, I swear...
Chorus 2x
until fades
and Nikki had those angel eyes that change my mind,
the day she looked at me(umm) then out of 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
Chorus
Excuse me my cu-tie
tell me Could U Be the kind of shorty just for me
my everlasting mean't to be (oh girl)oh girl
From the moment i saw you (My heart starts racing)
