Chorus: I was thinkin’ about her, thinkin about me.

Thinkin’ about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eye, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who should come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.

I was at the top and I was like I’m at the basement.
Number one spot and now she found her a replacement.
I swear now I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby.
And now you ain't around, baby I can't think.
Shoulda put it down. Shoulda got that ring.
Cuz I can still feel it in the air.
See her pretty face run my fingers through her hair.

My lover, my life. My shorty, my wife.
She left me, I'm tied.
Cuz I knew that it just ain't right.

I was thinkin’ about her, thinkin’ about me.
Thinkin’ about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eye, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who should come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.

When I be ridin’ man I swear I see her face at every turn.
Tryin’ to get my usher over, I can let it burn.
And I just hope she notice she the only one I yearn for.
Oh I miss her when will I learn?

Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback.
Now I'm in the club thinkin’ all about my baby.

Hey, she was so easy to love. But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough.

I'm goin’ through it every time that I'm alone.
And now i'm wishin’, wishin’ she'd pick up the phone.
But she made a decision that she wanted to move on.
Cuz I was wrong.

And I was thinkin’ about her, thinkin’ about me.
Thinkin’ about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who should come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.

If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything.
I said, if you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything.

I was thinkin’ about her, thinkin’ about me.
Thinkin’ about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eye, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who should come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.

And I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eye, yeah; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Who could come back? No one knows.
I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.
