Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My homie since knee-high
We came up on the south side
Where you had to beat the street lights home
We got into some street fights
But the next day we be right back at it all
Wherever there was me there was you
And we were like crew straight to junior high school
Then you messed it all up, started pushing up
Kissed me on the cheek and I fell in love
[Verse 2]
Shawty's a little taller now
Into big things, he's a baller now
His heart never changed, I can see he's still down
I can't forget him
More than his voice is changing now
All that I see is rearranging now
It just ain't the same, catching feelings now
I should tell him
[Verse 3]
Ooh, when the boy next door (Next door)
Don't wanna be my homeboy no more
Saw something that he never saw before
I think he wants to be my baby (My baby)
Been thinking 'bout him all my life (My life)
Now I see him in a whole new light
Something about it feels so right
That's why I think he wants to be my baby, baby
[Verse 4]
Every night when we get home
Under covers talking on the phone
Here comes my mother, it's way too late
Might get in trouble, my heart can't wait
So much to say, writing till my hand cramps up
Four pages saying I'm in love
(I got more than a crush)
Can't get you off my mind (Come pick me up, baby)
I'm sure I'll be fine when I look into your eyes
[Verse 5]
Shawty's a little taller now
Into big things, he's a baller now
His heart never changed, I can see he's still down
I can't forget him
More than his voice is changing now
All that I see is rearranging now
It just ain't the same, catching feelings now
I should tell him (Gotta tell him that I love him)
[Verse 6]
Ooh, when the boy next door (Next door)
Don't wanna be my homeboy no more
Saw something that he never saw before
I think he wants to be my baby, baby
Been thinking 'bout him all my life (My life)
Now I see him in a whole new light
Something about it feels so right
I think he wants to be my baby (My baby)
[Verse 7]
Chocolate covered candy kisses, they keep me reminiscing
All I want is what you're giving, nothing like your affection
So in love and you're the reason, there's no more lonely season
Lately, boy, you drive me crazy, think I wanna be your baby
[Verse 8]
Chocolate covered candy kisses, they keep me reminiscing
All I want is what you're giving, nothing like your affection
So in love and you're the reason, there's no more lonely season
Lately, boy, you drive me crazy, think I wanna be your baby
[Verse 9]
Oh-we-oh, oh, oh, oh
Don't wanna be my homeboy no more
Oh-we-oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh-we-oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh-we-oh
Now homebody wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby
[Verse 10]
Oh-we-oh, oh, oh, oh
He don't wanna be my homeboy no more
Oh-we-oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh-we-oh, oh, oh, oh
No more
Oh-we-oh
Now homebody wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
