Lyrics Janelle Monáe – Cloud 9
Text:
Every five minutes checking my phone
Sitting on the edge of my bed
Just to see if you called
See I been waiting all day
Walking round like I’m in a train
Singing silly love songs
And that ain’t me at all
See I tried to brush it off as just a silly game
That young girls like to play
But as time moved on I knew
My heart only beats for you
See what I’m tryna say is
You make me feel
The way I felt when I first met you
And my soul got chills
You make me feel
Like I can’t breathe without you love
And that’s oh, so real
See I never thought I’d find love
A girl like me, it was impossible
And now I find myself in love
Boy, you got my nose wide open
I can’t believe that you would be the one
Who would end my childish games for good
See I’ve tried to brush it off
As just a silly game that young girls like to play
But as time moved on I knew
My heart only beats for you
See what I’m trying to say is
You make me feel
The way I felt when I first met you
And my soul got chills
You make me feel
Like I can’t breathe without you love
And that’s oh, so real
Ever since you walked in my life
Boy I swear I ain’t been the same
Ain’t it funny how things do happen
You came in and you re-arranged
My heart
And I’m so grateful baby
I mean I’m truly grateful baby
You made a difference in my life
And I can’t explain the way that I feel
This journey through my life
