Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Girl you know you got me gone
Nelly got me gone, gone, gone, gone
Boy you know you got me gone
Remember that chick that used to live right up the block from me
I seen her yesterday and she still fly
Yep I still wanna make her mine
And I, I want much more than just a moment
See I ain't tryna lease or tryin' to rent I'm tryna own it yeah
This time I'll make my move, this time I'll show improve
To prove that I'm really irreplaceable
Plus I don't know if she's ever been told
But I got whatever she needs, yeah
And whichever way we go
No one could ever take what we've got right here between one another
Don't care what they say, you gon' be my lover
And if its in love baby, I wanna fall
Just promise me baby you'll be here, through it all
I'll do it again if I have to
Throw this money at you
