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 me?
What would you say, to have your way?
Would you give me up or try again,
If i hesitate to let you in?
Now would you be yourself, or play a 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 (oooohh)....
Chorus:
If at first you don't succeed (first you don't suceed)
Then dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't suceed (at first you don't suceed)
You can dust it off and try agian, dust yourself off and try again
Try again
Verse 2:
I'm went you, you went me,
but i can't let it go, so easily
Not 'till i see, where this could be,
could be eternity, or just a 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 y9ou don't succeed (first you don't succeed),
Then dust yourself off and try again
YOu can dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't succeed (at first you don't suceed)
You can dust it off and try again, dust yourself off and try again,
try agian
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 suceed (first you don't suceed),
then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first don't succeed (at first you don't succeed) You can dust if off and try again and try again, dust yourself off and try again, try again
Timbaland's Outro:
