Billions (Originals) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ain't gonna let me down
Ain't gonna break my heart, baby
Only gonna love me back
Only gonna fill me up, yeah
Never gonna fuck it up, no way
Definitely drive me wild
Definitely give me what I need
Never gonna hold me back
Never gonna be another
I can't wait to love you

[Chorus]
Ooh, no limit to the things that I do
Nobody else can say it ain't true
I am one in a billion
You are one in a billion
We got one in a billion
No limit to the things that you do
Everybody in the world knows it's true
You are one in a billion
I am one in a billion
We got one in a billion

[Verse 2]
And I ain't gonna let you go
Ain't gonna leave you alone in this cruel, cruel world
Never, I'm your girl
Never, I'm your woman, baby
Only you light the night, you're my star
And you definitely taken me through the dark
And I definitely follow you where you are
Don't ever tell your mother
All the ways that I love you
There will never be another baby, no
[Chorus]
Ooh, no limit to the things that I do (No limit to the things that I do)
Nobody else can say it ain't true (Nobody else can say it)
I am one in a billion (Yes, I am)
You are one in a billion (Yes, you are)
We got one in a billion (Baby)
No limit to the things that you do (No limit to the things that you do)
Everybody in the world knows it's true (Everybody knows it's true, yeah)
You are one in a billion (Yes, you are)
I am one in a billion (Yes, I am)
We got one in a billion (Baby)

[Outro]
Oh, oh-oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh-oh, oh, ooh
Oh-oh, ooh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
