Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake feat. Nelly Furtado & Timbaland Lyrics

5 foot 9, she's got legs for days
The subject of the song is tall and has long legs.

Green eyes that cut like a knife
The subject has striking green eyes.

And her own little sexy sway
The subject has a seductive dance move.

No, she don't waste no time
The subject is quick to take action.

Moving to the floor
The subject is dancing.

And when she starts to move she had me
The subject's dance moves are highly captivating.

Calling your mama saying you wanna go home
The subject's moves make the singer feel overwhelmed.

Baby, tell me why can't I have you?
The singer is questioning why he can't be with the subject.

Why you running, girl?
The singer is asking why the subject is avoiding him.

I just wanted to love you
The singer's intentions are pure and based on love.

I love you, baby, I love you
The singer truly loves the subject.

But I guess you don't have time for me
The singer believes the subject is too busy for him.

I want you, baby, I want you
The singer desires the subject.

But I guess love don't love me, no
The singer believes he is not receiving love in return.

It's okay to be scared
The singer understands the subject's fear.

'Cause this girl is super bad
The subject is incredibly attractive and desirable.

She will probably be the best thing that you never had
The singer believes the subject will be a missed opportunity.

Don't waste no time trying to make her your own
The singer advises to not waste time trying to possess the subject.

'Cause what she says goes
The subject has authority over her own decisions.

And life points to miss
The singer believes this is the end of the romantic road with the subject.

And this is the end of the road
The singer accepts that his pursuit of the subject has come to an end.

Baby, you said you loved me
The singer believes the subject claimed to love him in the past.

But you lead me on
The singer believes the subject misled him in their relationship.

And the feeling's so strong about you
The singer still has strong romantic feelings for the subject.

But I can't take it no more
The singer can no longer handle the unreciprocated love.

So I'm gone, leave you alone
The singer decides to move on from the subject and leave them alone.

Girl, I'm gone, girl, I'm gone, oh
The singer repeats that he is leaving the subject alone.

What's it gonna take to get you to love me, baby?
The singer is still hoping for reciprocated love from the subject.

'Cause I can't take it anymore
The singer is at his breaking point.

You're gonna be mine for sure, you know
The singer still believes the subject will be in a relationship with him someday.

You know what? Screw you
The singer expresses frustration and anger towards the subject.

But I guess love don't love me, no
The singer comes to terms with the fact that the subject may never reciprocate his love.
