Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Girl, I've been wantin'
For so long for you
Girl, I think I'm ready to get
To the bottom of the truth

I'd seen you peepin'
At me way before
Way before me and my lady

Had to call it off, oh

I didn't want to say a word
To you no, no
Wanted to make sure that everythin'
Was cool and not in the low, oh

'cause I'm not the type of guy
To cheat on my girl, no I ain't
But shit was 'bout to hit the fan
Should of known that long ago so

Take my hand
Let's get to know each other better
Let's begin
Somethin' good, so somethin' good
That we could treasure

I wanna know
If you really wanna be with me
I wanna know
If you really got it bad for me

I wanna know
If you're willin' to give everythin'
I wanna know
If you're down for anythin'

'cause I'm that type of man
That's down for his girl
Drama free, that's Guaranteed
And I give you my word

I'll give you all I have
Everythin' you want and more
Every little bit
That I can take from my soul yeah

I'm just a simple man
That wants to be heard, yeah
Take it from my broken heart
And a lesson that's learned

So I just need to know
How serious you are
Tell me if you really want this to
Go far

Take my hand
Let's get to know each other better
Let's begin
Somethin' good, so somethin' good
That we could treasure

I wanna know
If you really wanna be with me
I wanna know
If you really got it bad for me

I wanna know
If you're willin' to give everythin'
I wanna know
If you're down for anythin'

I really wanna know babe
If you're down wit me
I'm willin' to give you everythin'
And all you need

With you by my side
We can conquer the world, you know
If you need me

I wanna know
If you really wanna be with me
I wanna know
If you really got it bad for me

I wanna know
If you're willin' to give everythin'
