If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
Because they'd stick up for me



If I were a boy
I think I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her
cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!


If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone that its broken
so they'd think
that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
and make the rules as I go
cause I know that she'll be faithful
waiting for me to come home ( to come home)


If I were a boy
I think that I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her


Cause I know how it hurts
when you loose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!

It's a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong


But your just a boy
You don't understand (and you don't understand)
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you'll wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts

Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you taken her for granted
And everything that you had got destroyed
But your just a boy

All the single ladies! (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies! (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies! (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies! (Now put your hands up!)

Up in the club, we just broke up, I'm doing my own little thing;
You decided to dip, but now you wanna trip, 'cause another brotha noticed me...
I'm up on him, he up on me, "Don't pay him any attention..."
'Cause I cried my tears straight for three good years; you can't be mad at me...

Cause if you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
Don't be mad once you see that he want it!
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it...
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Cause if you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
Don't be mad once you see that he want it!
If you liked it, then you should have put a ring on it...
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh;
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh..

I got gloss on my lips, a man on my hips, and we tighter than my Dereon jeans;
Actin' up, drank in my cup; I can care less what you think...
I need no permission; did I mention "Don't pay him any attention"?
Cuz you had your turn, but now you gon' learn what it really feels like to miss me...

Cause if you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
Don't be mad once you see that he want it!
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it...
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Cause if you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
Don't be mad once you see that he want it!
If you liked it, then you should have put a ring on it...
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh;
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh..

Don't treat me to these things of the world (I'm not that kind of girl);
Your love is what I prefer; what I deserve
Is a man that makes me, then takes me, and delivers me to a destiny, to infinity and beyond!
Pull me into your arms, say I'm the one you want;
If you don't, youll be alone, and like a ghost, I'll be gone...

All the single ladies! (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies! (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies! (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies! (Now put your hands up!)
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Cause if you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
Don't be mad once you see that he want it!
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it...
Whoa oh oh...
Cause if you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it;
Don't be mad once you see that he want it!
If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it...
Whoa oh oh!

Remember those walls I built

Well baby they tumbling down

And they didn’t even put up a fight

They didn’t even make a sound

I found a way to let you in

But I never really had a doubt

Standing in the light of your halo

I got my angel now



Bridge:

It’s like I’ve been awakened

Every rule I had you breaking

It’s the risk that I’m taking

I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I’m looking now

I’m surrounded by your embrace

Baby I can see your halo

You know you’re my saving grace

You’re everything I need and more

It’s written all over your face

Baby I can feel your halo

Pray it won’t fade away



Chorus:

I can’t feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo



Hit me like a ray of sun

Burning through my darkest night

You’re the only one that I want

Think I’m addicted to your light

I swore I’d never fall again

But this don’t even feel like falling

Gravity can’t forget

To pull me back to the ground again





Bridge:

Feels like I’ve been awakened

Every rule I had you breaking

The risk that I’m taking

I’m never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I’m looking now

I’m surrounded by your embrace

Baby I can see your halo

You know you’re my saving grace

You’re everything I need and more

It’s written all over your face

Baby I can feel your halo

Pray it won’t fade away



Chorus:

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

Halooooo ouuuu

Halooooo ouuuu

Ouuuuu ouuuuu ouuuuu



Bridge:

Everywhere I’m looking now

I’m surrounded by your embrace

Baby I can see your halo

You know you’re my saving grace

You’re everything I need and more

It’s written all over your face

Baby I can feel your halo

Pray it won’t fade away



Chorus:

I can feel your halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo

I can see your halo halo halo

You're everything I thought you never were
Ain't nothing like a thought could have been
Still, you live inside of me
So tell me how is that

You're the only one I wish I could forget
The only one I love to not forgive
And though you break my heart
You're the only one

And though there are times when I hate you
'Cause I can't erase
The times that you hurt me
And put tears on my face
And even now while I hate you
It pains me to say
I know I'll be there
At the end of the day

I don't wanna be without you babe
I don't want a broken heart
Don't wanna take a breath without you babe
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you
But let me just say
I don't wanna love you
In no kind of way, no no
I don't want a broken heart
I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl
No, no, no broken-hearted girl

Something that I feel I need to say
But untill now I've always been afraid
That you would never come around
And still I wanna put this out

You say you got the most respect for me but
Sometimes I feel you're not deserved of me
And still you're in my heart
But you're the only one

And yes, there are times when I hate you
But I don't complain
'Cause I've been afraid that
You would walk away

Oh but now I don't hate you
I'm happy to say
That I will be there
At the end of the day

I don't wanna be without you babe
I don't want a broken heart
Don't wanna take a breath without you babe
I don't wanna play that part
I know that I love you
But let me just say
I don't wanna love you
In no kind of way, no no
I don't want a broken heart
I don't wanna play the broken-hearted girl
No, no, no broken-hearted girl

Now I met a place I thought I'd never be, oh
I'm living in a world whereas all about you and me, yeah
And I won't be afraid, my broken heart as free
To spread my wings and fly away, away with you

I don't wanna be without my baby
I don't want a broken heart
Don't wanna take a breath without my babe
Don't wanna take a breath without my babe

Hey baby
How you doing?
You know
I'm gonna cut right
To the chase
Some women were made
But me, myself
I like to think
I was created
For a special purpose
You know,
What's more
Special than you,
You feel me?

It's on,
Baby lets get lost
You don't need
To call into work,
Cuz you're the boss
For real want you
To show me how you feel
I consider myself
Lucky that's a big deal

Why, well,
You got the key to my heart
But you aint gonna need it
I'd rather you open up my body
And show me secrets
You didn't know was inside,
No need for me to lie

It's too big
It's too wide
It's too strong
It wont fit
It's too much
It's too tough
He talks like this
Cuz he can back it up
He got a big ego
Such a huge ego
I love his big ego
It's too much
He walks like this
Cuz he can back it up

Usually I'm humble
Right now I don't choose
You can leave with me
Or you could have the blues
Some call it arrogant
I call it confidant
You decide when you find
On what I'm working with
Damn I know,
I'm killing you with them legs
Better yet them thighs
Matter a fact it's my smile
Or maybe my eyes
Boy you a site to see
Kind of something like me

It's too big
It's too wide
It's too strong
It wont fit
It's too much
It's too tough
I talk like this
Cuz I can back it up
I got a big ego
Such a huge ego
But he love my big ego
It's too much
I walk like this
Cuz I can back it up
I, I walk like this
Cuz I can back it up
I, I talk like this
Cuz I can back it up
I, I can back it up
I can back it up
I walk like this
Cuz I can back it up

It's too big
It's too wide
It's too strong
It wont fit
It's too much
It's too tough
He talks like this
Cuz he can back it up
He got a big ego
Such a huge ego
I love his big ego
It's too much
He walks like this
Cuz he can back it up

Ego so big
You must admit
I got every reason
To feel like I'm that bitch
Ego so strong,
If you aint know
I don't need no beat,
I can sing it with piano

(Turn The Lights On)

Every night I rush to my bed
With hopes that maybe I’ll get a chance to see you
When i close my eyes
I’m going out of my head
Lost in a fairytale
Can you hold my hands and be my guide

Clouds filled with stars cover your skies
And I hope it rains
You’re the perfect lullaby
What kinda dream am is this?

You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me, your love's too good to be true
My guilty pleasure I ain't going no where
Baby long as you're here
I’ll be floating on air cause you're my
You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you

I mention you when I say my prayers
I wrap you around around all of my thoughts
Boy you're my temporary high
I wish that when I wake up you’re there
To wrap your arms around me for real
And tell me you’ll stay by side

Clouds filled with stars cover your skies
And I hope it rains
You’re the perfect lullaby
What kinda dream is this

You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me, your love's too good to be true
My guilty pleasure I ain't going no where,
Baby long as you're here
I’ll be floating on air cause you're my
You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you

Tattoo your name across my heart
So it will remain
Not even death can make us part
What kind of dream is this?

You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you
Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Somebody pinch me, your love's too good to be true
My guilty pleasure I ain't going no where
Baby long as you're here
I’ll be floating on air cause you're my,
You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare
Either way I, don't wanna wake up from you
