LifeTime
Usher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't let nothin' come in between the two of us
'Cause it's like your all I need
Since we've been together and
Whenever I'm in need of a little love
It's okay for me to open up
But I just can't give me heart to anyone 'cause

Some only come in your life for a season
And stay a while, givin' you a reason
To take temporary and
Think that it's forever
But you've given me someone that I
Can believe in I know there will be times
We can't come to an agreement
But I know we'll figure out the ups and down
Tell me are you willin' to take a chance? Baby, if so

Here we go (here we go)
Let me put you in my hand
C'mon (c'mon)
I wanna be your man
Let's do it right
So that you'll be with me a lifetime
'Cause you know and I know
Don't think that I'm talkin' crazy (c'mon)
Your mama and my mama want some grand babies tonight
Would you be with me a lifetime?

I used to think that it was hopeless
And I should just give it up (give it up)
But I couldn't stop until I found myself a good girl
To be in love

I checked every state and city
And looked all around the world
And I'm proud to say that my search ends here
'Cause you're one in a million to me and I can't let you go

Some only come in your life for a season
And stay a while, givin' you a reason
To take temporary and (yeah-yeah)
Think that it's forever
But you've given me someone that I (girl, you've give me)(that I)
Can believe in I know there will be times
We can't come to an agreement
But I know we'll figure out the ups and down
Tell me are you willin' to take a chance? Baby, if so

Here we go (here we go)
Let me put you in my hands
C'mon (c'mon)
I wanna be your man
Let's do it right
So that you'll be with me a lifetime
'Cause you know and I know
You know I ain't talkin' crazy (c'mon)
Your mama and my mama want some grand babies tonight
Be with me a lifetime

Listen, seasons are truly meant for change
However, love can be the reason you fall
But when you find that special someone
You'd be willin' to give them a lifetime
I love you and I choose you, follow me

Some only come in your life for a season
And stay a while, givin' you a reason
To take temporary and (yeah-yeah)
Think that it's forever
But you've given me someone that I (girl, you've give me)(that I)
Can believe in I know there will be times (there will be times)
We can't come to an agreement
But I know we'll figure out the ups and down
Tell me are you willin' to take a chance? Baby, if so

Here we go (here we go)
Let me put you in my hands
C'mon (c'mon)
I wanna be your man
Let's do it right
So that you'll be with me a lifetime
'Cause you know and I know




You know I ain't talkin' crazy (c'mon)
Your mama and my mama want some grand babies

I can't understand how this album was so slept on. Every song from beginning to end was a banger! But this song is on another level πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

I don’t that people were ready to see him settled down with a brown skinned woman outside of Chili, who was barely brown. Gorgeous and she was/one of a kind, I am sure but I don’t think that people were here for it and they associated it with directly with his union with Tameka. DADGUMMED shame!

Chan D.

Well thats the power of people not liking the woman you married. Which is unfortunate because other than "Confessions" this was one of his best albums

mrduncan704
