Typed by: OHHLA Webmaster DJ Flash

[Intro: Ja Rule]
I just never had time

[Chorus: Jon Doe] + (Ja Rule)
Between the lights and the cameras
The trips from New York to Paris
It seems I never could manage
to say that I (I just never had time)
Living my life on the road
And every city is home
I should have picked up the phone
and said that I (I just never had time)

[Interlude: Jon Doe]
I never had the time, the time I need to stay
That one's been been killin me, it's baby one-four-three

[Ja Rule]
Everybody always said you was the shit girl
How you ride, the it girl
The one I'm really tryin to get with girl
Not once, but kinda like a refill
I feel, can it get any better?
You niggaz gettin teased better make mines, fetta
Heh, spread it on bruschetta
Been all around the world, see these bitches won't shut up
How did we meet, talk, fuck, get caught up?
Deny it every time it get brought up
I've been wanting to experience real love
I really want to explore love - I just never had the time

[Chorus]

[Ja Rule]
Let it rain, let in rain
Rain down, on me
I've been really trying to be someone I never been
Trying to visualize something I never seen
And if I cn see it, how could it never be?
I'm tryin to be more than a memory
I pray - you remember me, miss me when I'm gone
Eighteen months ain't that long
I need to get away from it all:
the niggaz, the bitches, the business
Like Drake said, the hardest part is mindin your own
Fuck 'em all, bilingual, money call
I'm on the beach with my feet up, Monaco
The sad part about it though
I wanted you to be here I just never thought to say so
And I don't think you would say no
I kinda think you was waitin on my call - I just never had the time

[Chorus] + [Interlude]

[Ja Rule]
If I never get the chance, to say it
Them three words, so famous
or infamous, dependin how you go through it
Me myself, I'm more or less a love truant
I'm here, but never there for the moments
Makes me wonder how we still do it
Guess it's kinda like a "whodunnit"
Sex is always loose comin; so selfish, but so wanted
If there's anything to learn from this, it's
Don't let your feelings lie dormant
Cause we never get the roses when we can still hold 'em
I wish I woulda told her - I just never had time

[Chorus] + [Interlude]
