It If
Was Cool
Brian McKnight
I see that look in your eyes girl
From across the room that you're leadin' me
'N I can't deny that I want you
So I make my way up to you
I see that ring on your finger
Tellin' me that I shouldn't linger
It's such a shame a disaster
That it has to be this way
CHORUS:
But if it was cool
It would be me and you
Think of all the nasty things we could do
That would be something
But only if it was cool
But it ain't though
Tell me would he mind if I kissed ya
While he's at home watching ESPN
An' if I took you home would he miss you?
Well it don't matter 'cause I don't get down that way
An' if you were mine would you do this to me?
An' while I'm at home watching reruns of Dragnet with a bottle of Hennessey
'N would you be ashamed when you saw me?
And what would you say?
CHORUS
'Twas so nice to meet ya
Now I'll try to treat ya
The best I could
Like a true gentleman should
Now I've gots to leave ya
Here or there I just might see ya
I'll be around
Same bat-time, same bat-channel you know the station
CHORUS
I Don't Know Yet (Interlude)
We met and everything was fine
We were so young
Back before I drove a Mercedes
We got so high so low
Wasn't so long ago
We could've fell in love
But your girl got in the mix
Made you sick
Drove you crazy
Then one day you came out your face with a pack of lies
When other people get into your business they should really shut the hell up and
take five
And now you're sorry
You say baby I'm sorry
I might be able to forgive you and forget
But I don't know yet
So come on
Yo B, save that for the next record
Aight, let's go
