Usher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah man
Usher baby

Its so crowded up in here what you doing all alone?
And its so dark in here plus you ain't even got your phone
What kind of man would ever want to leave your side?
Shame on him you coming home with me tonight, babe
Go missing, baby ain't nobody gotta know
Go missing, conscience telling you, you shouldn't go
Don't listen, I'ma take good care of you for sure
Turn around, you can follow me right out that back door
Go missing, go missing, go missing
Baby we can keep it on the low
Go missing, go missing, missing

Reckless abandon go ahead and call all your girls
They probably got somebody taking care of them
Girl to each his own, I promise if you come with me
I'll let you get home in the morning
Make up your mind girl what's it gonna be?
Keep in mind we gotta leave 'fore they turn the light on
I'm gon' grab my keys don't you over

Go missing, baby ain't nobody gotta know
Go missing, conscience telling you, you shouldn't go
Don't listen, I'ma take good care of you for sure
Turn around, you can follow me right out that back door
Go missing, go missing, go missing
Baby we can keep it on the low
Go missing, go missing, missing

Come with me shawty forget about him
Call me Big Daddy 'til the morning
Do yourself a favor tonight
Cause a chance like this only happen once in a lifetime
Come with me shawty don't you wanna get in?
You and me shawty I'ma take you out of here
So do yourself a favor tonight
Oh, girl lets go missing

Go missing, baby ain't nobody gotta know
Go missing, conscience telling you, you shouldn't go
Don't listen, I'ma take good care of you for sure
Turn around, you can follow me right out that back door
Go missing, go missing, go missing




Baby we can keep it on the low
Go missing, go missing, missing
