Nelly – Just a Dream Lyrics 15 years ago
"My love of my life" .... listen closely. He says it quite plainly if you can subtract the music from the track and listen to words only.

Happy listening =)

Nelly – Just a Dream Lyrics 15 years ago
Seems that the harder I look, the more variations of lyrics I find. Until Nelly releases it himself(or his team of song writers ... whatever) we're left to figure it out ourselves. Myself, I have listened to this song a few hundred times as I'm in the process of mastering it for a cover. Here are the lyrics typed PROPERLY. The only thing I'm not 100% on is "My love of my life, my shawty, my wife. She left me, I'm tied, Cause I knew that it just ain't right" I'm not sure if it's "TIED" or "TIGHT". Being a middle class white boy, I don't quite understand a lot of the slang terms. I don't often listen to Rap/R&B and the alike. This was a first for me in a long time. Going through a pretty emotional time with my ex and I used music to vent. I heard this song, and fell in love with hte lyrics. Absolutely beautiful.

I was thinkin bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream

I was at the top and now its like I'm in the basement
Number one spot and now she found her a replacement
I swear now I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby
And now you ain't around baby I can't think
I shoulda put it down, should've got that ring
Cause I can still feel it in the air
See her pretty face run my fingers through her hair
My love of my life, my shawty, my wife
She left me, I'm tight
Cause I knew that it just ain't right

I was thinkin bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream

When I be ridin' man I swear I see her face at every turn
Try’na get my Usher on but I can't let it Burn
And I just hopes she know that she the only one I yearn for
More and more I miss her, when will I learn
Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback
Now I'm in the club thinking all about my baby
Hey, she was so easy to love
But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough
I'm going through it every time that I'm alone
And now I'm missing, wishing she'd pick up the phone
But she made the decision that she wanted to move on
Cause I was wrong

I was thinking bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream

If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
And now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything
Said if you ever loved somebody put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
Now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything


I was thinkin bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
I was thinkin bout her, thinkin bout me
Thinkin bout us, what we gon' be
Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream
So I travel back, down that road
Will she come back, no one knows
I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream
