One And Only

[Intro: Nelly]

Yo... we cool, right?

Nah I mean, we go back

You know, back before the records

Before you went to college and became this person who you are

Oh, congratulations on that anyway too, so

But, for a long time it's been somethin I need to tell you

Uhh, uhh, uhh - listen

[Singing: Nelly]

You see we been knowin each other since we were about this high

Same elementary, shared the same bus stop

Even as a youngster I knew you was so fly

Even back then I knew you were the one

I watched you grow, I watched your transformation

Right through school to your current occupation

It took this long for me to man up and have this conversation

But xxxx it, here it go

[Chorus: Nelly]

I want you, to want me

Girl I need to know that, I can be your one and only

I need you, to need me

See you were my worst mistake girl, and that's why

It's hard to keep my cool when I see you with him

Cause I really wish that you were right here

Tell me what's it take to win just a - piece of your heart

My only kryptonite is you, that's why anything you say I'll do

So let me stop for a minute, take a second to say

Girl you take my breath away, awayyyy

Girl you take my breath away (awayyyy)

You take my breath away, you take my breath away, yeah

[Singing: Nelly]

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh

They say one man's trash is the next man's treasure

Where one finds pain the next might find pleasure

I don't pay attention to them haters, now or never

I don't give a damn who was before me (me)

All that matters is you're with me now

All I need to know is that you're down

Man it's somethin special about round-the-way ladies

Ride-or-die baby, girl

[Chorus]

[Rapping: nelly]

Yeah, on the real, let me tell you somethin...

Uhh, uhh, it's like I die a little every time I see you with this guy

Thinkin to myself, "now why the hell she with that guy"

While she ain't by my side, we would be so fly

We would live that life

The life you used to dream is all about rapp-in

Back when I used to pull my bmx up alongside of your schwinn

See, and here we are again

Funny how fate brought my phantom up alongside of your benz

And still

[Chorus: w/ ad libs]

[Outro: Nelly]

Yeah so, I mean, like I said

You know we been knowin each other for a long time

You seen me go through, I seen you go through

We here now and, I just thought I'd tell you that

So, you got my number, as you got my e-mail

You know everything

So I guess the next message I get from you

Will let me know what you think about this right here, aight?

Aight, get home safe
