Checkin' for Me Songtext

von U2 & Mary J. Blige

You said you weren't mine so I go on without you! If you wanna shine, I'll let you shine without me. Cause I been to good to let you take me down, dead in the street or let you drive me to drinking. I'm feelin' good and really good about me. So don't even think the other men are not checkin' what ya lost... yeah they're checkin, they're checkin' for me.

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

You hurt me so bad but I'm not gonna cry. There's fish in the sea and I might take a dive too, to see who is deep or just as deep as me. See I need a man I didn't know you were that weak. See life is to short to be waiting on you, to make up your mind so do what you gotta do, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

(Oh, life is too short to be waiting on you boy)
I'm still alive now that you left me.
(I'm still alive even though you're gone)
I will survive even though you're gone
(Even though you're gone I will survive)
I'm still alive now that you left me.
(Ohh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh)
Now my soul I can call my own.
(Now my soul I can call my own...)
(My Lord, my Lord, my Lord...)
