List of  Keri Hilson Lyrics

(Featuring Kanye West & Ne-Yo)



[Kanye West]

Keep rockin, and keep knockin

Whether you Louie Vouitonned up or Reebokin

You see the hate, that theyre servin on a platter

So what we gonna have - desert or disaster?



[Keri Hilson]

I never thought Id.. be in love like this

When I look at you my mind goes on a trip

And you came in.. and knocked me on my face

Feels like in Im a race

but I already won first place



I never thought Id.. fall for you as hard as I did


(as hard as I did, yeah)

You got me thinkin about our life our house our kids

Every moment I look at you and smile

cause boy you came around and you knocked me down.. knocked me down



[Chorus]

Sometimes love comes around

(love comes around)

and it knocks you down


Just get back up

When it knocks you down

(knocks you down)

Sometimes love comes around

(love comes around)

and it knocks you down

Just get back up

When it knocks you down


(knocks you down)



[Ne-Yo]

Ive never thought I

hear myself say

Yall go head

I think Im gonna kick it with my girl today (kick it with my girl today)

I used to be commander and chief

of my pimp ship flyin high (flyin high)


til i met this pretty little missle, that shot me out the sky (ohhh shot me out the sky)



(hey) Until I crash it, I dont know how it happened

But I know it feels so damn good

said if I could back, and make it happen faster

Dont you know I would baby if I could

Miss independent (ohh, to the fullest), no never too much

she helping me pull it









Instead the pimp of me just died tonight









[Keri Hilson]



[Chorus]

Sometimes love comes around

(love comes around)

and it knocks you down

Just get back up

When it knocks you down


(knocks you down)

Sometimes love comes around

(love comes around)

and it knocks you down

Just get back up

When it knocks you down

(knocks you down)



[Kanye West]


Tell me now can you make it past your caspers

So we can finally fly off into NASA

you was always the cheerleader of my dreams to

seem to only date the head of football teams

and I was the class clown that, always kept you laughin

We, were never meant to be baby we just happen

so please, dont mess up the trick.. hey young world Im the new slick rick

they say I move too quick, but we cannot let the moment pass us


Let the hourglass pass right into ashes

let the wind blow the ash right before my glasses

So I wrote this love letter right before my classes

How could a goddess ask someone thats only average

For advice

OMG, you listen to that bitch?

Woe its me

Baby this is tragic

Cause we had it, we was magic






I was flyin, now Im crashin

this is bad, real bad, michael jackson

now Im mad, real mad, joe jackson

you should leave your boyfriend now, Ima ask him



[Keri Hilson]


So I gotta put the good with the bad, happy and the sad

So I'll bring a better future than I had in the past

oh Cause, I dont wanna make the same mistakes I did

I dont wanna fall on my face again

Whoaa, whoaaa

I'll admit it, I was scared to act to loves call

Whoaa, whoaaa

and if it hits better make it worth the full



(When it comes around)



[Chorus]

Sometimes love comes around

(love comes around)

and it knocks you down

Just get back up

When it knocks you down


(knocks you down)

Sometimes love comes around

(love comes around)

and it knocks you down

Just get back up

When it knocks you down

(knocks you down)



Wont see it coming when it happens


but when it happens youre gonna feel it, let me tell you now

you see when love knocks you down



Wont see it coming when it happens

but when it happens youre gonna feel it, let me tell you now

you see when love knocks you down!
