Lyrics
[verse]
Late night, phone against my ear, I gotta know for sure
If you're really down for me or just here for the tour
Would you love me broke the same way that you love me flexed
Would you hold it down for real or bounce when things get complex
I got questions stacking up like traffic on a Friday
Need an honest answer, baby, tell me your own way
Ain't tryna scare you off, just tryna see what's real
'Cause I've been burned before behind a pretty face and appeal
[chorus]
So many questions, gotta know where your heart's at
Twenty-one and counting, tell me straight, no holding back
So many questions, tell me would you ride or leave
Baby I just need to know the girl behind the sleeve
[verse]
Would you cry for me if I was locked up down the road
Would you visit every Sunday, carry half of my load
Would you tell your friends the truth about the man I really am
Or paint a prettier picture just to fit the newest plan
I ain't asking 'cause I doubt you, just asking 'cause I care
Wanna build a life on truth, not a rumor in the air
So take your time and answer, I ain't going anywhere
Just want a love that's honest, one that we can always share
[chorus]
So many questions, gotta know where your heart's at
Twenty-one and counting, tell me straight, no holding back
So many questions, tell me would you ride or leave
Baby I just need to know the girl behind the sleeve
[bridge]
(spoken over groove)
Yeah... last question, and it's the one that matters most
Would you love me for me, past the money and the boast
If the answer's yes then baby we got something real
If it's no, at least we know exactly how we feel
[chorus]
So many questions, gotta know where your heart's at
Twenty-one and counting, tell me straight, no holding back
So many questions, tell me would you ride or leave
Baby I just need to know the girl behind the sleeve
