Yo
Yo usher
I'm trying find her man
I have no idea who she is
Can you help
Cool
(CHORUS)
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Cause here I am
(USHER)
Mother told me
Don't look for love
You will not find it
Be patient babe
For now my eyes I'm closing
I guess I have to wait
Late at night thinking of her
And I know it don't sound right
I don't know what she looks like
But she's my baby
Will holla back
Tell the thruth
(USHER)
(CHORUS)
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Cause here I am
(Verse 2)
(PHARRELL)
So maybe u think I'm going out of my mind now
Or maybe my mind is going out of me
For now my eyes are closed but wait
How am I to see
(USHER)
Late at night thinking of her
And I know it don't sound right
I don't know what she looks like
But she's my baby
Will holla back
Tell the thruth
Just to show her the skylights
I promise to be her sunlight
Until my dying day
(USHER)
(CHORUS)
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Cause here I am
(Verse 3)
(USHER)
Late at night thinking of her
And I know it don't sound right
I don't know what she looks like
But she's my baby
Will holla back
Tell the truth
Just to show her the skylights
I promise to be her sunlight
Until my dying day
(PHARRELL)
I send my prayers about you to heaven
Did you get them
(USHER)
U probably don't want to move
I'm begging
Believe me baby
(USHER)
(CHORUS)
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Cause here I am
(USHER)
(CHORUS)
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Wifey where are you
Cause here I am
(PHARRELL in backround)
Yo
Yo usher
I'm trying find her man
I have no idea who she is
The song "Wifey" by Usher featuring Pharrell is a longing for love song about a man who knows what he desires in a partner but is in search of where she is. The song opens with Pharrell asking Usher for help in finding his perfect partner, who he calls "wifey." Usher then reflects on the advice his mother gave him about love and not searching it out, but instead waiting. However, he admits to thinking of his future partner often and knowing that she's out there, even if he doesn't know what she looks like.
The chorus, "Wifey where are you? Cause here I am," represents the yearning and eagerness to find the one. In the second verse, Pharrell questions his own sanity for searching for someone who he has never even seen, but Usher insists that his love is real and that he will continue to wait and look for her. The song ends with Usher sending prayers for his future love to heaven and begging her to believe that he is out there waiting for her.
