John Legend Album

(Jay-Z feat. John Legend)

Chorus

I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go

I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go

Do you wanna ride
With me
Do you wanna ride
With me

Verse One

You know why they call a project a project
Cause it's a project
An experiment, we're in it
Only as objects

And the object for us
To explore our prospects
Side step cops
On the way to the top, yes

As kids we would daydream
Sitting on our steps
Pointing at cars like
Yeah that's our six

Hustler's profits
Made our eyes stretch
So on some Dr. Spock sh*t
We started our trek

Some of us made it
Most of us digressed
In the name of those
Who ain't made it my progress

Is your success
Please live through me
See I'm the eyes for Emory
Keep ‘em alive

Collect call
So every time I press 5
All he wanna hear is
His boy talk fly

Up in the Feds
He still holding his head
Cause when he hits the streets
We gonna eat thru this bread, now let's ride

Chorus

I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go

I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go

Do you wanna ride
With me
Do you wanna ride
With me

Verse Two

International HOV
I told you so
40/40's out in Tokyo
Singapore

All this from
Singing songs
Coming up though
We thought slinging raw

Was the end all, be all
To being rich didn't we
Little did I know
My mo' potent delivery

Would deliver me Kingpin of the ink pen
Monster of the double entandre
Coke is still my sponsor, the cola, yeah
HOVA still getting it in with soda

Started from the crates
Drinking, playing spades
Looking out for older guys
Back in the days

Then we got our turn
The takes on the stage
We was stars at the bar
All day pouring Rose

Now I can't wait
Till you get your date
I got some temp plates
Outside of the gate, we gonna ride

Chorus

I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go

I know
I know
Some places we can go
Some places we can go

Do you wanna ride
With me
Do you wanna ride
With me

Verse Three

Now me and my lil Momma
Keta and Ty Ty
Juan and Dez
Out in St. Tropez

Jay Brown & Kawanna
Sneaking marijuana
You know that Mary J
Give you no more drama

Plus a couple of friends
This whole sh*t got weird
But when you get home
You know your spot's reserved, ya heard

I put my ni**as on,
My ni**as put they ni**as on
And now we all somewhere foreign
Chilling, sipping something, I ain't forget you
cousin

Chorus

Last night was the worst night
Beginning of the end
Or maybe it began
Before it here we go again
Things got so dramatic
Things got out of hand
We said words we couldn't imagine
I don't understand

There you go with the same old thing
When things go wrong you always seem to blame me
Now I would like to find what secrets hide in your mind
Where the end will go
Will I ever know

Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows

So let's make this night the best night
It's time for second chance
Turn the beat up on repeat and we can start to dance

Sometimes when we talking words
Drowned on by the sound
Let's get back to touch and we'll get back on solid ground

Let's hold hands
Like a young romance
Let's first kiss like the moment we first did
Can we make love
Like back way in the day
We can lose control, baby don't say no

Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows

So will you come back to me
Heaven only knows
So will you come back to me

Make this night the best night
It's time for second chance
Turn the beat up on repeat and we can start to dance

Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows

She's a, fast love professional, crafty bold and beautiful,
Stage right, locked eyes, I swear it's magical,
Her name is Melanie, says she digs my melody
Likes how I move, thinks I'm cool that's what she says to me
Big stage, bright light, short love, long night
Frequent flies thru the skies to some stars
I come back to town, she's hangin' around
But still feels so real but it can't go too far

Her favourite colours be platinum and gold!
She only loves in stereo! she only loves in stereo!
I should know cause I've seen it before,
I think I gotta let her go, she only loves in stereo!
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..

Turn on the video, oh my goodness there she goes
Now I'm hot, seems I'm not, the only one she knows
Name dropping everyday, I still want her anyway..
I like how she moves, think she's cool.. my favourite get away

Big stage, bright light, short love, long night
Deja vu yeh we'll do it again, off the next town,
She's onto the next round,
Let it go, we both know that its all gona end oh

Her favourite colours be platinum and gold!
She only loves in stereo! she only loves in stereo!
I should know cause ive seen it before,
I think I gotta let her go, she only loves in stereo!
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..

Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..

She fell in love with the radio
Wasn't really me, so I had to let her go
Just ask any DJ back in her hotel
She likes to get around
As much as she gets down

Her favourite colours be platinum and gold!
She only loves in stereo! she only loves in stereo!
I should know cause I've seen it before,
I think I gotta let her go, she only loves in stereo!
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..
She loves in stereo
Think I gotta let her
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..
She loves in stereo
Think I gotta let her
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..
She loves in stereo
Ohhh ohhhhhh, ohhhh ohhh..
She loves in stereo
Oh, oh oh, oh oh!

[No lyrics]

Say that you'll stay a little
Don't say bye, bye tonight
Say you'll be mine
Just a little bit of love
Is worth a moment of your time
Knocking on your door just a little
So cold outside tonight
Let's get a fire burnin'
Oh I know I'll keep it burning bright
If you stay
Won't you stay
Stay

Save room for my love
Save room for the moment to be with me
Save room for my love
Save a little
Save a little for me
Won't you save a little
Save a little for me
Ooh

This just might hurt a little
Love hurts sometimes when you do it right
Don't be afraid of a little bit of pain
Pleasure is on the other side
Let down your guards just a little
I'll keep you safe in these arms of mine
Hold on to me, pretty baby
You will see
I can be all you need
If you stay
Won't you stay
Stay

Save room for my love
Save room for the moment to be with me
Save room for my love
Save a little
Save a little for me
Won't you save a little
Save a little for me
Ooh

Bah da ba baaa [x3]
Da da daaa

Ooh
Come on
Make time to live a little
Don't let these moments slip by tonight
You'll never know what you're missin till you try
I'll keep you satisfied
If you stay
Won't you stay
Stay

Save room for my love
Save room for the moment to be with me
Save room for my love
Save a little
Save a little for me
Won't you save a little
Save a little for me
Stay

Save room for my love
Save room for the moment to be with me
Save room for my love
Save a little
Save a little for me
Won't you save a little
Save a little for me

Hmm…

Snoop talking
Hey yo nephew check this out man
Now I know you got that bad chick right there
You aint even tripping off of her
But she doing all of that for you
She got this, she got that
She's off the hizzle
I mean when you find one like that
You got to make that change man
Cuz they don't come too often
And when they do come
You gotta be smart enough to know when to change
Like Sam Cooke say change gon' come nephew
And you better believe that

As I look back on all that I've done to you
My biggest regrets
The things that I never could do
I see the light now baby it's shining through
Gotta give up the game
Yeah I got some changin' to do

I won't get high if you want it
Get that straight
9 to 5 if you want it
Keep my ass home at night if you want it
Whatever you need me to do

When you talk I'ma listen
Give you all that attention you missing
Girl I swear I'ma handle my business
Just like a real man should do

I can change
I can change (you know I can change baby)
I can change
For you (you know I can stop baby)
I can change (you know I change baby)
I can change
I can change
For you (you know I can stop baby)

I'll give up all the places I used to go
Stay out the club
Stay home because I'm with you
I'll give up all those girls that I used to know
They don't compare
Baby I swear it's the truth (you know it's the truth baby)

So I'm through with the women
Yeah that's right
I give up on the pimpin'
Girl I'm gonna repent from my sinnin'
If that's what you want me to do

I'll get right if you want it
Go to church
Get baptized if you want it
Girl you opened my eyes and I'm gonna
Be much better for you

Baby believe me
Baby believe me

I can change (you know I can change baby)
I can change (know I can change baby)
I can change
For you
I can change
I can change
I can change
For you

Snoop's Rap
Take me to the river
And baptize my soul
I'm so outta control
Needing someone to hold
Man it's cold
I aint been clubbin', drinkin', or smokin'
I'm focused
Bowin' down every night prayin' and hopin'

I'm trying to figure out a way
But I just don't know how to say
But I'm rearrangin'
Hopefully I'm changin'
And you can see that
Baby cuz it's hard for me
Kinda sorta odd for me
But aint nothing to it
If you need me to do it
I guess…

I can change
I can change
I can change
For you (I'll give up on the pimpin' for you)
I can change
I can change
I can change
For you (sing it again y'all)

I can change
I can change
I can change
For you
I can change
I can change
I can change
For you

You know I can stop baby

Gotta believe me (you gotta believe me baby)
Gotta believe me (mmm yeah)
I telling the truth

You know I can stop baby

Gotta believe me (believe me)
Gotta believe me (believe me yeah)
I'm telling the truth

Get baptized if you want it
This time I mean it

Gotta believe me (this time I mean it)
Gotta believe me

[No lyrics]

Yea, sing it with me yall, oh yea yea

Can we wait just a minute
Slow it down for a minute now baby
Your talkin loud
Your wilding out
Don't seem like my old lady
Lets go and play the song we used to play
Can we reignite the flame
Cause things just ain't the same

We can talk about the baby
We can talk until we're crazy
We can focus on it now
Or we can focus on it later
We can start another fight
We can argue and fuss all night
But I propose that we go to floor and we slow dance

Tonight I wanna dance
Can you do that with you man yea
Tonight I wanna groove
And let the music make you move
Move yea

Can we wait just a minute
Turn that tv off for a minute
Now politics and talkin shit aint really none of my buisness
Lets go and play the songs we used to play
On that old school radio
Let the music soothe your soul

Forget about the world
Im groovin with my girl
Froret about the news
Lets put on our dancin shoes
Lets not talk about the war
Do we know what they fightin for
I propose that we go to the floor and we slow dance

Tonight I wanna dance
Can you do that with you man yea
Tonight I wanna groove
And let the music make you move
Move yea yea
Move yea yea

I love it
I love it
I love it we're slow dancin together
I love it
I love it
I love it we're slow dancin together
I love it
I love it
I love it we're slow dancin together
I love it
I love it I propose that we go to floor and we slow dance

Tonight I wanna dance
Can you do that with your man yea
Tonight I wanna groove
Let the music make you move

[No lyrics]

The first time we ever got a chance to be alone we knew,
That it was wrong to do,
I guess that's why I was drawn to you,
The 2nd time leads to the 3rd, the 4th, the 7th time,
I feel so alive, it won't last but it's alright,
Pleading joy and fading ecstasy, here it goes again oh,
Sneaking fruit from the forbidden tree, Sweet taste of sin,

And I'm doing it again; yes I'm doing it again,
Oh I'm doing it again, I said it would end but here it goes again,

This time you told me you saw me at the same hotel,
You said you knew me well, and I had a familiar smell,
You asked me how am I ever going to put my trust in you,
Like you want me to, cause I know what you're prone to do,
Accusations fly like bullets do, here it goes again oh,
But you know me because you're doing it too,

The cycle never ends, never ends,
Yet you're doing it again,
Oh you're doing it again,
Yes you're doing it again,
You said it would end but here it goes again,
And again, and again

Damn I love you, but this is crazy,
I have to fight you almost daily,
We break up so fast,
And we, we make up so passionately,
Why can't we just trust each ,
You can't hate me and be my lover,
Passion ends, and pains begins, I come back...

And we're doing it again,
Yes we're doing it again,
Oh we're doing it again,
We said it would end but
Here it goes again,

Each time you call me home in a sweet refrain,
Saying things will change, you'll take away the pain,
Then we flashback to the first time you put your spell on me,
You envelope me, you feel good as hell to me,
One moment leads to another few,
Here it goes again oh,
Oh leaving you is oh so hard to do,
I just can't pretend, can't pretend,
I keep doing it again, yes I'm doing it again,
Oh I'm doing it again,
I said it would end but here it goes again,
Again

Let's go to the park
I wanna kiss u underneath the stars
Maybe we'll go too far
We just don't care
We just don't care
We just don't care

U know I love u when u loving me
Sometimes it's better when it's publicly
I'm not ashamed I don't care who sees
Just hugging & kissing our love exhibition all

We rendezvous out on the fire escape
I like to set up an alarm today
The love emergency don't make me wait
Just follow I'll lead u
I urgently need you

Let's go to the park
I wanna kiss u underneath the stars
Maybe we'll go too far
We just don't care
We just don't care
We just don't

Let's make love, let's go somewhere they might discover us
Let's get lost in lies
We just don't care
We just don't care
We just don't care

I see u closing down the restaurant
Let's sneak and do it when your boss is gone
Everybody's leaving we'll have some fun
Or maybe it's wrong but u turn me on
Ooh, we'll take a visit to your Mama's house
Creep to the bedroom while your Mama's out
Maybe she will hear it when we scream and shout
And we will keep it rocking until she comes knocking

Let's go to the park
I wanna kiss u underneath the stars
Maybe we'll go too far
We just don't care
We just don't care
We just don't

Let's make love, let's go somewhere they might discover us.
Let's get lost in lies
We just don't care
We just don't care
We just don't care

If we keep up on this fooling around
We'll be the talk of the town
I'll tell the world I'm in love any time
Let's open up the blinds cause we really don't mind

Ooh I don't care about the priority
Let's break the rules and ignore society
Maybe our neighbor like to spy too
So what if they watch when we do what we do

Oh, let's go to the park
I wanna kiss u underneath the stars
Maybe we'll go too far
We just don't care
We just don't care
We just don't

Let's make love, let's go somewhere they might discover us...

La La La
La La La

Maybe, it's me, maybe I bore u
No no, it's my fault, cos I can't afford u
Maybe baby, puffy, jay z
would all be better for u
Cos all I can do is luv u

Baby when I used to luv u
Theres' nothing that I wouldn't do
I went thru the fire for you, do anything you asked me to
But I tired of livin this lie
It's getting harder to justify
Realised that I just don't luv u
Not like I used to

La la la
la la la

Maybe, I should rob somebody
So we could, live like whitney and bobby
It's probably my fault, my bad, my loss
But u are, above cost
Cos all I could do was luv u

Baby when I used to luv u, theres' nothing that I wouldn't do
I went thru the fire for you, do anything you asked me to
But i'm tired of living this lie
It's getting harder to justify
Realised that I just don't luv u
Not like I used to

Hola hola hola
Hola hola hola

Do you remember when I used to luv u
Baby no not any more, luv u
Ooohhhh, I luv u
And you're gonna miss me now

Baby when I used to luv u
There's nothing that I wouldn't do,
I went thru the fire for u, and i'm not gonna play the fool
No I can't live this life, and I can't justify, and I can't make up my life
Cos I don't luv u
Not like I used to do

Hola hola hola
Hola hola hola

Oh I used to luv u
Oh I used to luv u

Oh but I don't luv u
Oh but I don't luv u

Oh but you're gonna miss me now

Baby when I used to luv u, theres' nothing that I wouldn't do

Realised that I just don't luv u
Not like I used to

la la la
la la la
Oh I used to luv u
Oh I used to luv u

Oh but I don't luv u
Oh but I don't luv u

Oh but you're gonna miss me now

Girl, I'm in love with you
The same to honeymoon, passs the infatuation fate
Right in the thick of love
At times we're sick of love
It seems like we aruge everyday
I know I misbehaved
And you made your mistake
And we both still got room left to grow
And though love sometimes hurts
I still put you first
And we'll make the things work
But I think we should take it slow

We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
'Cause we're just ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow

The same to movie
No fairytale conclusions are
It gets more confusing everyday
Sometimes it's heaven sent
Then we head back to hell again
We kiss then we make up on the way
I hang up your call
We rise and we fall
And we feel like just walking away
As all love advances, we take second chances
Though it's not fair to see I still want you to stay

We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
'Cause we're just ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow

Maybe we'll live and learn
Maybe we'll crash and burn
Maybe you stay, maybe you leave, maybe you return
Maybe in another find, maybe we won't survive
Maybe we'll grow and never know
Baby, you and I
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go, yeah
'Cause we're just ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
'Cause we're just ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow, slow
This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow

A father waits upon a son
A mother prays for his return
I just called to see
If you still have a place for me
We know that like took us apart
But you're still within my heart
I go to sleep and feel your spirit next to me
I'll make it home again
I pray you'll fall in love again
Just say you'll entertain the possibility
I learned enough from my mistakes
Learned from all I didn't say
Won't you wait for me

It may be long to get me there
It feels like I've been everywhere
But someday I'll be coming home
Round and round the world will spin
Oh, the circle never ends
So you know that I'll be coming home

We fight to stay alive
But somebody's got to die
It's so strange to me
A new year, a new enemy
Another soldier gone to war
Another story told before
Now it's told again
It seems the wars will never end
But we'll make it home again
Back where we belong again
We're holding on to when
We used to dare to dream
We pray we live to see
Another day in history
Yes we still believe

It may be long to get me there
It feels like I've been everywhere
But someday I'll be coming home
Round and round the world will spin
Oh, the circle never ends
So you know that I'll be coming home

I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming?
You know that I'll be coming home

It may be long to get me there
It feels like I've been everywhere
But someday I'll be coming home
Round and round the world will spin
Oh, the circle never ends
So you know that I'll be coming home

I realized as I lay down to sleep
We haven't spoke in weeks
So many things that I'd like to know
Come have a talk with me
I need a sign, something I can see
Why all the mystery?
I try not to fall for make believe
But what is reality?
Where do we go?
What do we know?
Life has to have a meaning
Show me the light
Show me the way
Show that you're listening

Show me that you love me
Show me that you walk with me
Hopefully, just above me
Heaven's watching over me

Guess it's funny how I say thanks to you
For all you've given me
Sometimes the price of what you gave to me
I can't stop questioning
O God of love, peace, and mercy
Why so much suffering?
I pray for the world, it gets worse to me
Wonder if you're listening
When people go
Why do they go?
Why don't you choose me?
But someday I know
I'm gonna go
I hope you're waiting for me

Show me that you love me
Show me that you walk with me
Hopefully, just above me
Heaven's watching over me

Maybe we'll talk
Some other night
Right now I'll take it easy
Won't spent my time
Waiting to die
Enjoy the life I'm living

Show me that you love me
Show me that you walk with me
Hopefully, just above me
Heaven's watching over me

Baby since the day you came into my life
You made me realize that we were born to fly
You showed me everyday new possibilities
You proved my fantasies of love could really be

Let's go to a place only lovers go
To a spot that we've never known
To the top of the clouds we're floating away yeah
Ooh this feels so crazy
Oh this love is blazing
Baby we're so high
Walking on cloud 9

(You've got me up so high) So high
(My shoes are scraping the sky) So high
(You've got me up so high) Oh
(My shoes are scraping the sky)

Maybe later we can go up to the moon
Or sail among the stars before the night is through
And when morning comes we'll see the sun is not so far
And we can't get much closer to God than where we are

We'll go to a place only lovers go
To a spot that we've never known
To the top of the clouds we're floating away yeah
Ooh this feels so crazy
Oh this love is blazing
Baby we're so high
Walking on cloud 9

(You've got me up so high) So high
(My shoes are scraping the sky) So high
(You've got me up so high) Oh
(My shoes are scraping the sky)

Ooh…yeah
Ooh…oh hey

Ooh this feels so crazy
Oh this love is blazin'
Baby we're so high
Walking on cloud 9
You got me up so high
You got me up so high
You got me up so high
My shoes are scraping the sky

You got me up so high
You got me up so high
You got me up so high
My shoes are scraping the sky ooh…ooh…
Yeah…

This is how love's supposed to be
This is how, this is how love's supposed to be, yeah
Let's go to the moon baby, ooh
Let's go to the moon baby, yeah
Let's go, go, let's go to the moon baby
