Timbaland`s Intro:
It`s been a long time, we shouldn`t have left you left you,
without a dope beat to step to step to, step to, step to
Verse 1:
What would you do, to get to me?
What would say, to have your way?
Would you give up or try again,
If I hesitate to let you in?
Now would you be yourself, or play role?
Tell all the boys, or keep it low?
If I say no, would you turn away,
Or play me off or would you stay (oooohhh)...
Chorus:
If at first you don`t succeed (first you don`t succeed),
then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust if off and try again, try again
`Cause if at first you don`t succeed (at first you don`t succeed)
You can dust it off and try again, dust yourself off and try again, try again
Verse 2:
I`m into you, you into me, but I can`t let it go, so easily
Not `till I see, where this could be, could be eternally, or just week
You know our chemistry, is off the chain
It`s perfect now, but will it change?
This ain`t a yes, this ain`t a no
Just do your thang, and we`ll see how it goes (oooohhh)...
Chorus:
If at first you don`t succeed (first you don`t succeed),
then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust if off and try again, try again`
Cause if at first you don`t succeed (at first you don`t succeed)
You can dust it off and try again, dust yourself off and try again, try again
Bridge:
See you don`t wanna throw it all away,
I might be shy on the first day,
but what about the next day (huh, huh, huh, huh)
See you don`t wanna throw it all away,
I might be buggin` on the first day but what about the next day (huh, huh, huh, huh)
Chorus:
If at first you don`t succeed (first you don`t succeed),
then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust if off and try again, try again`
Cause if at first you don`t succeed (at first you don`t succeed)
You can dust it off and try again, dust yourself off and try again, try again
Timbaland`s Outro:
It`s been a long time, we shouldn`t have left you left you,
without a dope beat to step to step to, step to, step to
