[Intro]
Hohhhh-ah
Hohhhhhhhh

[Verse 1]
At first it started with the eyes
I'm like uh-uh, no way, yo sister, can't no
And so the tension slowly build
You got them slanted eyes that kills, all systems go
Then you kissed my cheek, my knees get weak
My heart just skipped a beat, so I just froze
Then you touch me there, I knew you would, and
Girl, you touched me good, I'm like uhh-oh
Ohhhhhh girl

[Hook]
Know what, know what, know what, you know what?
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
It hurts me, it hurts you, it hurts me, what you do
Was so good, so good, so good, so good

[Verse 2]
Let me show you where you went wrong
You know that our sex took us to and fro
Then you had the nerve to say you're hurt
And fix your mouth to blame the Cuervo
Then in me you couldn't find a compromise
And I'm just like, 'you know what you chose'
I don't want to say it again, but here it goes
Fuck it, we're just friends, now where's my clothes?

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
What am I gon' do when I can't get anymore
I'd rather not know oh
Cause if you wanna know the truth
Nobody made me cum like you, I just roll over
I can't let my mind think of you
I hit that dial and get you on the phone
Cause baby it's just not the physical
I get with you I'm addicted to your moan

[Hook]

[Bridge]
The rumors (3X)
This ain't right (you know it's so)
You know I want it (you know it's so)
You know I want it (you know it's so
(You know it)
Girl this ain't right (you know it too)
You know I want it (you know it too)
You know I want it
(I'm mad at you)

[Verse 4]
You try keep your feelings inside the ropes
But then you weigh me down when you see me like hey hello!
Now you know we never cared of a public place
I see it in your face and those were magnific' times don't go
How we gon' stop?

[Hook]

[Outro] x2
Your friendship means the most to me

N.E.R.D. (officially stylized as NER*D, as seen on their covers) is a backronym that stands for No-One Ever Really Dies.

N.E.R.D. is a hip-hop and rock band whose members include Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, also known as The Neptunes, and Shae Haley. The band was formed as a side project by the Neptunes in 1999. Williams and Hugo had known each other since 1985 when they were 12, and they met Shae Haley a few years later in high school. Hugo and Williams signed a deal when they graduated high school in 1992 and eventually, Hailey joined them when N.E.R.D. was formed.

In September 2001 the band released their first album, In Search Of in Europe. They used digital production for the project but when they prepared for the worldwide release a year later they opted to re-record the album with a live funk rock band known as Spymob. Two years later in March of 2004, they released their second album, Fly or Die. Unfortunately, the two albums didn’t have nearly as much success as The Neptunes production work—collectively the two albums barely broke a million copies sold. In 2005 the group supposedly disbanded because of a dispute with Virgin Records, but Pharrell contradicted this claim in an April 2008
