Between Friends

0

Hurry up and make a move do somethin
Im tryin to leave
Ill admit u got me jacked up think ur comin with me
Everytime i see you look in my direction
I wanna find a way to get your attention
Come over say somethin
I need to know

Chorus
Why can't it be
Cause i been lookin for that special guy
Why can't it be
You been lookin for that special girl
Why can't it be
That you and me
You'll be all that im thinkin about
And i'll be all, all your dreamin of

I see ya lookin on the downlow, and
Ya makin me smile
I can't think about nothin else baby
Your drivin me wild
Wanna find a way to get your attention
Baby look at me in all of my dimensions
I need to know somethin
Tell me whats up

Chorus
Why can't it be
Cause i been lookin for that special guy

Why can't it be
You been lookin for that special girl
Baby why can't it be
That you and me
You'll be all that im thinkin about
And i'll be all, all your dreamin of

Couldn't we be more than just friends
Or we could chill and just see what happens
We don't have all night to drag this thing out
I gotta know from u say u want me too

Chorus
Why can't it be
Cause i been lookin for that special guy
Why can't it be
You been lookin for that special girl
Baby why can't it be
That you and me
You'll be all that im thinkin about
And i'll be all, all your dreamin of

Why can't it be
Cause i been lookin for that special guy
Why can't it be
You been lookin for that special girl
Baby why can't it be
That you and me
You'll be all that im thinkin about
And i'll be all, all your dreamin of
