Paradise (feat. Amerie)

[Amerie harmonizes]

[LL] 10..

[Am] Mm, MMM, mmm, mmm

[Intro: Amerie]

If you need me baby I'm, FOR, real

The rest of your life, I'll take you to paradise..

If you want it baby just, BE, real

The rest of your life, I'll take you to paradise

I'm gonna give-a-you all my love, yeah

[LL Cool J]

We went through this before

Actin like the L's can't bag 'em no more

Nightgown draggin on the heated marble floor

Flash Cartier when you open up the door - slide these on baby

So butter, still relate to the gutter

Just your lifestyle's different, spirit uplifted

Fell in love with a cat who's gifted

Turn you back to paradise, damn I missed it

Pop a bottle, light a purple candle

I got somethin that you can't quite handle, that's why you love me

Pour bubbly, glow from the flame make your skin shine lovely

I'm sayin baby

Touch it why don'tcha (ohh) touch it why don'tcha (ohh)

Touch it why don'tcha (ayy) touch it why don'tcha (mmm)

Hey girl.. aw, girl!

Hey girl, I wanna rock your world

[Chorus: Amerie + (LL)]

If you need me baby I'm, FOR, real

The rest of your life, I'll take you to paradise..

(Paradise, is very nice)

If you want it baby just, BE, real

The rest of your life, I'll take you to paradise (uh, uh)

I'm gonna give-a-you all my love, yeah

[LL Cool J]

Next phase is this

Black sand, Tahiti, ten days to reminisce

God's my witness (uh)

I paid the price for paradise, so I'm livin this

I never limit myself, the L's fearless

Lay back while I illuminate the darkness

Like it smooth don'tcha

Make it move won'tcha, think I won't?

Take you to your peak I know them other cats don't

And it won't stop - this is beyond paper

First I get your mind right, then I might drape ya

Never pimpin, raise my girls well

Young thoroughbreds get schoolled by Uncle L.L.

C-double, L tattooed on the bubble

I lay the mink down, let you walk over a puddle

True love is so rare

But don't you worry I ain't goin nowhere

[Chorus w/ minor variations]

[Interlude: Amerie]

Trust me, trust me, trust - me, baby

Rest of your life I'll take you to paradise

I'll take you to paradise, oooohh

So won't you try me, try me - try, this, lady

Rest of your life I'll take you to paradise

I'm gonna give-a-you all my love, yeah

[LL Cool J]

Belly to belly, one hand on the jelly

At the telly on the celly - get that money Elle

Please believe it, if the mind can conceive it

then the man can achieve it; you gotta breathe it

And I breathe deep, I'm one with the universe

Minimum, ten percent go to God first

Lay back baby, close your eyes

Ice on the pinky finger froze your thighs

So much shade baby, the waterbed fries

Walk around nude in the suite yellin, Recognize!

Do your dance, baby pour me a class

It feels so good to have the world in a smash

Touch it why don'tcha (ohh) touch it why don'tcha (ohh)

Touch it why don'tcha (ayy) touch it why don'tcha (mmm)

Hey girl.. aw, girl!

Hey girl, I wanna rock your world

[Chorus w/ minor variations]

[Amerie ad libs]

[LL Cool J]

Yea yea, gotta keep your eyes on the prize baby

Sky's the limit

If you can see it, you can be it

Ha ha, it's on you, word up

Everybody put your hands in the air

It's high time baby

One love, one God, recognize, uhh

[Amerie]

If you need me, just call me

Said if you want me, just be for reallll

And if you like me, come and talk to me

And if you want me, tell me how you feeelll

[Chorus - fades out]
