Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've sat in waited filled my head with doubt.
I didn't think you come around and see it my way.
But you build up all the courage now.
Tonight your the water and I'm ride your waves today.
[Chorus]
So shawty wait until the light go out there's no more talking
Wait until the lights go out lets loose the power for about a hour.
Oh Shawty wait until the light go out [Repeat: x2]
I never told you that the way you be talking to me sights my whole world.
But now its class time girl if you don't mind lets show and tell.
I got in good with your best friend [Repeat: x2]
So that you never forget me.
And all that trash we be talking to her its entertaining.
[Chorus]
If you ready hold it steady girl lets get into.
Turn off the mood if the blinds but some shade to it.
Put your body in position for submission.
Straight shoveling while I'm digging no need a electrician.
Oh when the lights.
[Chorus]
