Next 2 Ya Lyrics

(feat. Ryan Leslie)

[Chorus:]
I've been next to ya
I only wanna be next to ya
Been next to ya, I only wanna be next to ya
I've been next to ya, I only wanna be next to ya

[Verse 1:]
After everything that we been through, I was there for you, you was there for me
And I gotta know what's the issue
Can we make it last, or am I just crazy?
Think about when we first met
The way we touched the way I felt and I
I really wanna know if it's for real
I've gone over this once, over this twice and then
Baby I came... to the conclusion that I really needed you
And no one in the world could take your place
If we gave this thang up, it would be such a shame
Baby 'cause I've been next to ya and I only wanna be next to ya

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]
I'd thought you'd understand me when I say, what I say
And I brought you into my family, you're part of us
You know that they love you
Think about when we first met
The way we touched the way I felt and I
I really gotta kno-o-ow if this is for real
I've gone over this once, over this twice and then
Baby I ca-a-ame to the conclusion that I really needed you
And no one in the world can take your place
If we gave this thang up, it would be such a shame
Baby 'cause I-I-I've been next to ya and I only wanna be next to ya

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
'Cause you're the only one that makes my heart feel this wayyy I
Got this feelin' that I know I just can't escape, you know I
Need you in my life I won't let you go, no
'Cause you mean everything to me, and I've been right next to you

[Verse 3: Ryan Leslie]
You can catch in a black coupe
Yea, I was dat dude
I hustle hard
Like all Harlem cats do
Was into pretty girls
Big city girls
Slick gettin money quick
Real witty girls
Fenny bag on her arm with the pretty curls
Biggest thing in her lil itty bitty world
That's me
I know what I gotta do
Settle for the Prada boots
House with the lotta rooms
And hit it right
All night
Take me out to game
But it's all right
It's lovely
And she lovin me
And when it's said and done
I know where she wanna be
(Krys Ivory-And I've... !)

[Chorus x2: Ad-libs and vocalization in b/g]

[Fade out]
