Prince - This Could B Us lyrics

You ready? Naw... you ain't ready (naw, you ain't ready) I mean ready for us (You know you want me like a new pair of shoes) This could be us But you be playin' This could be us But you keep on fooling around You're the cage to my dove I'm just saying Forever and ever in love Oh baby yea This could be us (You know you want me like a new pair of shoes) This could be us This could be us You, you say you ain't ready Ready to go steady, you ain't ready for us (no) Cause what I got make you weak in the knees Take your energy (oh baby), make you sleep for a week Sex with me ain't enough That's why we gotta do it, metaphysically (This could be us) This could be us (This could be us) This could be us I, I know you're lovin your freedom Cause your freedom, is paying your bills (on funky dolla holla) (Yes it is) Boyfriends, you think you don't need 'em But in the middle of the cold, cold night I think you will (show you right) This could be us yes But you be playin' (oh yeah...) This could be us (you sho' nuff could be) But you keep on fooling around We, we come upon a crossroad And we got to decide (decide), which way to turn (Which way, "yes" which way to turn) Are we gonna go (Are we gonna go) Go (Are we gonna) Over the bridge (Over the bridge) Over the bridge (Over the bridge) Before, before it burns (Don't you let it burn) let it burn, baby (This could be us) This could be us (oh yea) This could be us (Oh you gotta stop playin baby) Everybody knows, everybody knows That a woman needs love (L-O-V-E, love) Like a river flow, like a river flow (Inside) If it's good, that's all she thinkin' of Metaphysical cookie makin' creme Sleep alone if you wanna Nothing mystical let me lick it pretty clean (Like a new pair of shoes) After that, (You can put me on my back) (You gonna want to show me off to the world) You can put me in the back with the candy in My purple psychedelic pimp sac When I, Ooohhhhh This right here This could be us This could be us This could be us (oh yeah) But you be playin' (yes you do now) This could be us (honey, honey, honey) But you keep on fooling around You're the cage to my dove I'm just saying (I'm just saying) Forever and ever in love Oh baby yea This could be us (This could be us) This could be us (This could be us) This could be us This could be us This could be us You're the cage to my dove Only one I been dreaming of Forever and ever in love Ohh baby, yea This could be This could be This could be us, But you don't have time for Me... no... more The happy & the free
