Текст песни If We - Mariah Carey , Ja Rule

(You brought prosperity to the neighborhood)

I never thought
(Who would've thought, baby?)
That I'd be
(Missin' you, baby)
Without you
(I need you, baby)
Why me?
(Why me?)
I never thought
(Who would've thought, baby?)
That I'd be
(Missin' you, baby)
Without you
(I need you, baby)
Why me?
(Why me?)

Love, want your body next to me
On me actually, off that ecstacy
Reminiscing how we used to smoke and freak
Fuck and fall asleep, knockin' for a week
Now we barely even talk and walk the block
Kiss and cuddle up, girl we losing touch
What's a man to do but go crazy, babe?
I know you mad, but you don't really hate me, babe
It's deeper than that, that

Baby, if we got together again
Sugar, I would be your very best friend (I'd be your very best friend)
I would love you unconditionally
You'd never wanna let me go, baby
I promise I would be by your side
Give you everything you need to get by (you need to get by)
And my broken heart would finally mend
Darlin' if we got together again (baby, if we got together again)

Sometimes I close my eyes and just pretend
What if I had a chance to do it all again?
Sometimes for happiness, we hesitate
Just like the game, I hear that love won't wait
What if I had another best friend? (Had another best friend)
What if I had someone on whom I could depend? (Me)
Someone who makes me feel like you used to
Tell me, baby, what would you do? (What would you do?)

Baby, if we got together again (oh)
Sugar, I would be your very best friend
I would love you unconditionally (I)
You'd never wanna let me go, baby (never)
I promise I would be by your side (I promise I would be)
Give you everything you need to get by
And my broken heart would finally mend
Darlin' if we got together again (oh)

Baby, if we got together again (who would've thought, baby?)
(If we got together)
Sugar, I would be your very best friend (missin' you, baby)
I would love you unconditionally (I need you, baby)
(I would love you)
You'd never wanna let me go, baby (why me?)
I promise I would be by your side (who would've thought, baby?)
(Right by your side)
Give you everything you need to get by (missin' you, baby)
And my broken heart would finally mend (I need you, baby)
Baby if we got together again (why me?)

Why would you wanna go through the pain of lovin' another man?
The truth is nobody can love you like I can
It's a damn shame we can't get along
We used to get it on, where'd it all go wrong?
I admit, the flesh is weak, but the game is strong
You go my way, your way, baby, we moving on
It's true, I'm gon' miss you
Who would've thought I'd be without you?

I never thought (baby, there's nothing to lose)
That I'd be (you know my soul's so cold)
Without you (and my love is pain)
Why me? (Baby, one more time)
I never thought (my baby)
That I'd be (pride and joy)
Without you (I'ma make you mine)
Why me? (Without Rule)

(If we got)
Baby, if we got together again
Sugar, I would be your very best friend (I would be your very best friend)
I would love you unconditionally (yes I would)
You'd never wanna let me go baby (I would)
I promise I would be by your side (I would be by your side)
Give you everything you need to get by (everything you need)
And my broken heart would finally mend
Darlin' if we got together again

(If we) Baby, if we got together again (who would've thought, baby?)
(If we) Sugar, I would be your very best friend (missin' you, baby)
(If we) I would love you unconditionally (I need you, baby)
You'd never wanna let me go baby (why me?)
(If we) I promise I would be by your side (who would've thought, baby?)
(If we) Give you everything you need to get by (missin' you, baby)
(If we) And my broken heart would finally mend (I need you, baby)
(If we) Darlin' if we got together again (why me?)

Baby, if we got together again (who would've thought, baby?)
Sugar, I would be your very best friend (missin' you, baby)
I would love you unconditionally (I need you, baby)
You'd never wanna let me go, baby (why me?)
I promise I would be by your side (who would've thought, baby?)
Give you everything you need to get by (missin' you, baby)

So don't you be getting all freaky on the first date
It's not a date (it is a date!)
I gotta go (I of all people know it's a date)
It's a date-date, date!
