Usher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Miss you daily
Ooh, I wanna
Be inside ya
Ooh, I'll be in command
Oh, oh, oh, oh (oh, oh, oh)
Ooh, I'm lost
The price I pay
For all this fame
But, baby, I'm coming
Oh, oh, oh, oh (home, home, home, coming home)
Yeah, I'm coming to bed
Wanna cuddle in bed
Won't just open yo' legs
And then leave you for dead
Keep it G on the down-low
Ooh, turn on the radio
Let me take you to bed, take you to bed
See me coming
Runnin', runnin' on the journey
See me coming
Pick up I'm just try to find my way back, oh
Just put me on the right road
Make a run like Usain Bolt
Feel like I'm not even close
Ooh, I'm lost
Crossin' the world
Like I been searchin', searchin' till thy kingdom come
Be my security
If I'm catchin' your feelings
No go forsake me
I been waitin', and I can't wait any longer oh
Ooh, I'm lost
Lost in the world
Price I pay
For all this fame
Baby, I'm coming
Oh, oh, oh, oh (home, home, home, coming home)
Yeah, I'm coming to bed
Wanna cuddle in bed
Won't just open yo' legs
And then leave you for dead
Keep it G on the down-low
Ooh, turn on the radio
Let me take you to bed, take you to bed
Take you to bed

And you know I like when you put that
Look on your face

Scream it for me
Ooh, together we're coming, coming, coming, coming home, oh
Yeah, I'm coming today
Gonna cuddle in bed, baby
Won't just open yo' legs
And then leave you for dead, now
Keep it G on the down-low
Ooh, turn on the radio
Let me take you to bed, ooh take you to bed
