when I heard this instrumental I instantly had in mind these love movies with this infamous cliché scene where they run into each other’s arms outside under the rain. I tried to get into a romantic mood and that’s what came out. Enjoy the corniness!
lyrics
yeah, I’ll hold you down
Oh mama
Yeah now
I’m Ready to go alone
see my wave
Every times I walk
Lean back
If I told you please
Baby let me ride
If I hold it down
Would you lay me down
With my heart unbound
We’re out on our own
Would you be back here
If i told you no
our hands are untied
As I told you
Baby you’re my home
lay down where you should be
like I’m here right now
Bebe now
If I told you
hey now, I want you here
By my side
Baby you know you want it
Hey now, let me breathe
Show you love
Maybe I care
If I told you now
Baby walk with me
I’ve been there to love
Shawty now, can’t you see
Hold it down
And hold me in love
Show me baby how I can
Hold me down
If I told you that I got em
Shawty please don’t let me out I need my one true love
saving me
From being all alone
Would you lay me down
With my heart unbound
We’re out on our own
but you’d be back here
If i told you no
our hands are untied
