[Timbaland:]
Много времени прошло,
Знаешь, не стоило тебя оставлять
Одну и без сил.
[Aaliyah:]
Ну, что бы ты сделал?
Что бы ты сказал,
Чтобы получить меня?
Чтобы все было, по-твоему.
Сдался бы?
Или попытался снова?
Если бы я не решалась
Впустить тебя,
Остался бы ты собой?
Или распустил бы хвост
Перед другими парнями, рассказывая,
Что я ни в грош тебя не ставлю.
Если я откажу,
Отвернешься ли ты от меня?
Или все переиграешь?
Или останешься?
[Припев:]
И если у тебя сразу не получится,
Встряхнись и попытайся снова.
Ты можешь встряхнуться и попытаться снова, попытаться снова.
Потому что, если у тебя сразу не получится,
Ты можешь встряхнуться и попытаться снова.
Встряхнуться и попытаться снова, попытаться
снова (и снова).
[Aaliyah:]
Ты мне нравишься,
А я - тебе,
Но я не могу пустить это на самотек.
Не так просто.
Пока я не разберусь,
Будет ли это
Навсегда
Или на неделю.
О, да, твое очарование
Не поддается никакому контролю.
Ты великолепен сейчас,
Но надолго ли?
Это еще не "да".
Это еще не "нет".
Продолжай делать то, что ты делаешь сейчас,
А там посмотрим, что из этого выйдет.
[Припев]
[Aaliyah:]
Понимаешь, если тебе это не безразлично,
Я могу быть слишком застенчивой на первом свидании.
Как насчет второго?
А? А? А? А?
Слушай, раз тебе это не безразлично,
Я могу быть не в духе на первом свидании.
Как насчет второго?
А? А? А? А?

[Timbaland:]
It's been a long time
We shouldn't have left you
Without a dope beat to step to
[Aaliyah:]
What would you do?
To get to me
What would you say?
To have your way
Would you give up?
Or try again
If I hesitated
To let you in
Now would you be yourself
Or play your role
Tell all the boys
I keep you low
If I say no
Would you turn away?
Or play me off
Or would you stay, oh, oh
[Chorus:]
And if at first you don't succeed
Then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again
Cause if at first you don't succeed
You can dust it off and try again
Dust yourself off and try again, try again
(and again)
[Aaliyah:]
I'm in to you
You into me
But I can't let it go
So easily
Not till I see
Whether this could be
Could be eternally
Or just a week
Ay yo our chemistry
Is off the chain
It's perfect now
But will it change?
This ain't a yes
This ain't a no
Just do your thing
We'll see how it go, oh, oh
[Chorus]
[Aaliyah:]
See you don't wanna throw it all away
I might be shy on the first date
What about the next date?
Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh?
I said you don't wanna throw it all away
I might be buggin' on the first date
What about the next date?
Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh?
[Chorus]
[Timbaland:]
A lot of time has passed,
You know, you shouldn't leave you
One and no strength.
[Aaliyah:]
Well, what would you do?
What would you say
To get me?
That everything was, in your opinion.
Would you give up?
Or tried again?
If I didn’t make up my mind
Let you in
Would you be yourself?
Or I would have dismissed my tail
In front of the other guys, telling
That I don’t put you in a penny.
If I refuse
Will you turn your back on me?
Or will you replay everything?
Or will you stay?
[Chorus:]
And if you don’t succeed right away,
Shake yourself and try again.
You can shake yourself and try again, try again.
Because if you don’t succeed right away,
You can shake yourself and try again.
Shake and try again, try
again and again).
[Aaliyah:]
I like you,
And I - to you,
But I can’t let it drift.
Not so easy.
Until I figure it out
Will it
Forever and ever
Or for a week.
Oh yeah your charm
Not amenable to any control.
You are magnificent now
But for how long?
This is not a yes.
This is not a no.
Keep doing what you do now
And then we'll see what happens.
[Chorus]
[Aaliyah:]
You see, if this is not indifferent to you,
I may be too shy on a first date.
What about the second?
AND? AND? AND? AND?
Listen, since you care
I may be out of sorts on a first date.
What about the second?
AND? AND? AND? AND?
