Is that my echo?
Give me the straighter 1
Can U turn the lights down some?
Good God
{scatting}

Called U yesterday
U didn't answer ur phone
Main drag is knowing that
U probably weren't alone

Turn the voice down a little

Wanna call U every day
Beg U 2 B near me
I know ur head is underwater
I doubt that U could hear me

Let the rain come down, let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Let the rain come down, rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Yeah
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha {repeat}

Been gone 17 days
17 long nights
Main drag is knowing that
U'r holding some1 else tight
I wanna call U every day
Beg U 2 B near me
I know ur head is underwater
I doubt that U could hear me

Let the rain come down, rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Hey, rain
Oh baby, down
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha
Gone now 17 days
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha

Been gone 17 days
17 long nights
Always a drag, baby,
I know U'r holdin' another nigga tight
I wanna call U every day
Beg U 2 B near me
I know it's underwater
Doubt that U could hear me

So let the rain come down, come on down
Let the rain come down, down
Oh, oh
Come on down, yes
Come on down, yeah
Baby, oh
Yeah ooh...
Come down, yeah
Oh...
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha {repeat}
{scatting}
Fancy new days
Gettin' fancy
