So Good
Nao & A. K. Paul Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never had much money
I never won a race
My jokes don't end up funny
And I've had doors slammed in my face
But I think you've charmed me
I always hoped that someone would
I never had a love like this before
I never had it so good

I'm not the kind that's trusted
Always tripping over logs
And often I've been busted
Chased by friendly dogs
But I think you've charmed me
I always hoped that someone would




I never had a love like this before
I never had it so good

[Verse 1: NAO]
Oh, I doubt you're good but it fits
As long as you take me there
Don't care if you're sure to come on in
As long as you're taking me there
If you roll the dice there's a chance
As long as you take me there
I don't even care about it
Just as long as you're taking me there

[Chorus: NAO and A. K. Paul]
We could be, we could be, we could be
So as long as you're taking me there
We could be, we could be, we could be
So as long as you're taking me there

[Verse 2: NAO and A. K. Paul]
I see what you're saying, I hear you baby
Oh I hear you baby
You're loving your choice without me, I wanna take you there
So I see my mistake, that's why I came
I'm gonna take you there
We're growing apart, missed a lead
I'm gonna take you there
(We don't even care about it)
I'm gonna take you there

[Chorus: NAO and A. K. Paul]
We could be, we could be, we could be
So as long as you're taking me there
We could be, we could be, we could be
So as long as you're taking me there
Well they don't know I take you there
Oh I'm taking- oh I'm taking- oh I'm taking you there
Oh I'm taking- oh I'm taking- oh I'm taking you there

[Verse 3: NAO and A. K. Paul]
I'm almost there now
We make over, the play to hold is over, I sway
Cause I need to deal with the fever too
Boy just take me there

[Verse 4: NAO and A. K. Paul]
And I know the bliss, you look down to this
Gonna do you right I swear
We're okay to you, I feel it too
Just let me take you down
Take me there

[Outro: A. K. Paul]
I'll get you there, yeah
