Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And by the look that’s on your face I’m just right
I wouldn’t lie and i won’t make it up
I’m coming for you. Ya just for you
Did you know that all the words that I’ve been screaming are the voices you’ve been hearing
Yes i know, that you hear it.
But do you feel it?
I won’t leave this place without you cause there’s nobody else like you
I’ll flip the world and shake it out to show there’s nobody else like you
Don’t need to worry about me giving up
There ain’t a thing here that can stop me from you
Darling, please don’t fight the feeling.
You are all that i believe in.
And i know I’m gonna make it with you
Did you know that all the words that I’ve been screaming are the voices you’ve been hearing
Yes i know, that you hear it.
But do you feel it?
Where she at? I just wanna spoil ya
Hey girl I’ve been lookin for ya
(I won’t leave this place without you cause there nobody else like you)
All across the globe, girl let’s go
Everybody knows
(I’ll flip the world and shake it out to show there’s nobody else like you)
Hey boo let me break your curfew
Your hearts broke, and I’ve come to nurse you
You’re too strong to let another man hurt you
You know damn well i deserve you
I’ve been patiently waiting to make my move
Imma make an offer that you can’t refuse
(I’ll flip the world and shake it out to show there’s nobody else like you)
Take time, imma make you mine
Keep running till i cross the line
I go all around the world and i just can’t find one girl that’s just like you
Never thought I’d see that day i say I do
Never thought I’d hear you say you love me to
(I’ll flip the world and shake it out to show there’s nobody else like you)
I won’t leave this place without you cause there’s nobody else like you
I’ll flip the world and shake it out to show there’s nobody else like you
