Can You?

I have never been 
That girl 
That wouldn't give you the world 
Boy, i would have given it 
I would have given it 
If we could start all over again 
Would I be more than a friend 
Don't fake it
I want you , you want me 
Ain't that the way it's supposed to be 
Can you take it 
Can you take it 

Can you have me 
Can I have you
If granted the opportunity
What would you do?

Let's talk about a chance 
To hold hands 
Boy, it's the small things (the small things)
You say you know me so well
Break it down in detail 
Have you been listening 
Paying attention 
If you have, then I wouldn't have to  mention (mention)
Mention what I like 
And what I don't like 
If you could 
You would make it right 
You know I'm about you 
And only you 
Thats real
If you look into my eyes 
You would know just how I feel 
Let's keep it real

Can you have me 
Can I have you
If granted the opportunity
What would you do?

Rap 
I saw you first 
You caught my eye
I said to myself 
Damn he fye 
Damn he dope 
He give me confidence 
And also hope 
He so uplifting 
He keep on gifting 
Me with wisdom and knowledge 
He is the lead 
I'll just follow it
Follow the good vibes 
With you I'll ride 
As long as you by my side 


Can you have me 
Can I have you
If granted the opportunity
What would you do?(Repeat until chorus fades )
