Incomplete
Sisqo(시스코) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bright Lights, Fancy Restaurants
Everything in this world that a man could want.
I got a bank account bigger than the law should allow
Still I'm lonely now
Pretty Faces from the covers of a magazine
From their covers to my covers wanna lay with me.
Fame and Fortune still can't find, just a grown man runnin' out of time
Chorus:
Even Though it seems I have everything
I don't wanna be a lonely fool
All of the women, all the expensive cars, all of the money don't amount to you.
So I can make believe I have everything, but I can't pretend that I don't see.
That without you girl my life is incomplete.
Verse 2:
Listen.
Your perfume, your s*** lingerie.
Girl I remember it just like it was on yesterday.
A Thursday you told me you had fallen in love, I wasn't sure that I was.
It's been a year-Winter, Summer, Spring and Fall.
But being without you just aint livin' aint livin'at all
If I could travel back in time, I'd relive the days you were mine.
Chorus:
Even though it seems I have everything
I don't wanna be a lonely fool.
All of the women, all the expensive cars, all of the money don't amount to you.
I can make believe I have everything, but I can't pretend that I don't see
That without you girl my life is incomplete.
Verse 3:
I just can't help lovin' you
But I loved you much too late.
I'd give anything and everything to hear you say, that you'll stay
Chorus:
Even though it seems I have everything.
I don't wanna be a lonely fool.
All of the women, all of the expensive cars, all of the money don't amount to you.
(you can have it all) I can make believe I have everything, but I can't pretend that I don't see. (Just give me my
Baby)
That without you girl my life is incomplete.
