Lyrics

Anytime

[Intro: Ciara & (Future)]

(I'll be there anytime)

Baby, I'll go to war

[Chorus: Ciara & Future]

Baby I

Baby I'll go to war for you, in this life

Baby I'll get the scars to prove

(I'll be there anytime)

[Post-Chorus: Future]

Anytime that you need

Anytime that you call

Anytime that you fall

I'll be there anytime

Anytime that you hurt

Anytime you're in pain

Baby call my name

I'll be there anytime

[Verse 1: Ciara]

Damn, running with romance

And now my heart is beating so fast

And I've been dreaming 'bout this feeling for so long

Man, ever since you came in my life

My stars aligned, you spent the time

It feels so right, I know this can't be wrong

I cry happy, happy tears every night (damn)

I'ma spend the rest of my life

Just lovin' on you, kissing' on you, being on you

Holding on you, touching on you, leaning on you

[Chorus: Ciara & Future]

Baby I

Baby I'll go to war for you (in this life)

Baby I'll get the scars to prove

(I'll be there anytime)

[Post-Chorus: Future]

Anytime that you need

Anytime that you call

Anytime that you fall

I'll be there anytime

Anytime that you hurt

Anytime you're in pain

Baby call my name

I'll be there anytime

[Verse 2: Future & (Ciara)]

I'm your soldier, I'm your soldier

I'll go to war because I love ya

(You're my soldier, you're my soldier

I'll wait for you, cause I love ya)

I'm your soldier, I'm your soldier

I'll go to war because I love ya

Hit me, I come in no time

I get right on the front line

We the new Bonnie and Clyde

Yeah

[Chorus: Ciara & Future]

Baby I

Baby I'll go to war for you (in this life)

Baby I'll get the scars to prove

I'll be there anytime

[Post-Chorus: Future]

Anytime that you need

Anytime that you call

Anytime that you fall

I'll be there anytime

Anytime that you hurt

Anytime you're in pain

Baby call my name

I'll be there anytime

[Bridge: Ciara]

You're my baby

And I adore you

I love my baby

You know I'll always be here for you

You're my baby

And I adore you

I love my baby

You know I'll always be here for you

[Chorus: Ciara & Future]

Baby I

Baby I'll go to war for you (in this life)

Baby I'll get the scars to prove

I'll be there anytime

[Outro: Future]

Anytime that you need

Anytime that you call

Anytime that you fall

I'll be there anytime

Anytime that you hurt

Anytime you're in pain

Baby call my name

I'll be there anytime
