Summertime
Beyoncé feat. Diddy Lyrics

Out of all the guys that approach me
Of all the men who try to talk to me

Walking up to me like they know me
Approaching me like they are familiar with me

You were the one that stayed aside
You were the one who didn't immediately approach me

Waited a while and took your time
You waited patiently and didn't rush things

You don't know how impressing
You don't realize how impressive

Your curiosity was to me
Your curiosity was appealing to me

It was the fourth day of July
It was the Fourth of July holiday

Looked in my eyes and saw that I
Looked into my eyes and realized that

I wanted more than just a man
I wanted more than just a romantic partner

I needed a friend
I needed someone to talk to and confide in

Someone I can talk to, someone who really listens
Someone who would listen and give me support

When you touched my hand, the sun got brighter then
Your touch made me feel alive and happy

Trusting you, I closed my eyes and felt our love begin
I trusted you and felt our relationship start to grow

Now it's been a year and we're closer
Now a year has passed and we are even closer

Fall in love again when I hold ya
Falling in love again when I am close to you

I know that God set you aside for me
I believe that you were meant to be with me by a higher power

And now you are my prize
You are now my most valuable possession

Wanna grow old wit'cha
Want to spend the rest of my life with you

And fill our house with your pictures
Decorating our home with pictures of you

Have a son for you
Want to have a son with you

A little girl for me
And a daughter for me

Together we'll raise a family
We will raise a family together

So what's in gonna be, him or me?
Who are you going to choose, him or me?

We can cruise the world for pearls
We can travel the world searching for treasures

And bare boots for girls
And buy luxury items for me

Summertime in the linen, fresh fruit
Wearing light clothing and eating fresh fruit in the summer

Livin the life that's forbidden for just you
Living a life of luxury that only you can afford

No worries you ain't gotta be stressed out
You don't have to stress out about anything

No hurries you ain't gotta be rushed out
Things don't have to be rushed or hurried

Sit back relax ma take your time
Relax and don't feel rushed, take your time

Now have a taste of the finest wine
Try the best wine available

Every minute that we have's a blessing to me
Every minute we spend together is special and meaningful

And in your heart you's a "Child of Destiny"
You are meant for great things

Them hot summers that we had especially
The hot summers we spent together were unforgettable

Love who you is girl, you bring out the best of me
I love who you are and you bring out the best in me

And it's like that, you know it's like that
That's how it is, you know that's how it is

And that's your plan, where's your hand let me ice that
Is that your plan? Let me help you with that

You my heart ain't no chance you could fight that
You are my heart and there's no way you could resist

The summertime, when you hot baby take that, take that, yeah
The summer is the perfect time to enjoy ourselves, let's do it

It was the summertime
Our love story began in the summer

When we fell in love, it was the summertime
We fell in love with each other during the summer

When Heaven shined on us it was the summertime
Our love felt blessed and perfect during the summer months

Baby, there is nothing like the summertime
The summer is irreplaceable and special

Summertime
A celebration of the summer season and our love story
