After much teasing, Mariah Carey has finally released the lead single from her upcoming album. The track “With you” is a slow tempo R&B ballad produced by multi-artist DJ Mustard, who previously worked with Beyoncè, Usher and Ty Dolla Sign.
Preceded by the promotional single “GTFO”, “With you” is another taste of Carey’s untitled 15th studio album, which is due out later this year.
The follow-up to 2014’s “Me. I Am Mariah… The Elusive Chanteuse” features production from Jermaine Dupri, Skrillex and Nineteen85.
On October 9, Mariah will perform the new single at the American Music Awards.
Lyrics:
Uh huh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
With you
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
Mustard on that beat, ho
It was all so overwhelming
She was like “I don’t know, don’t tell me”
He had eyes that said “girl, I’ll save you”
She had doubts, like they might not make it
So they both held tight to face it
They wrote vows, she was bound to take ’em
She was full of such trepidation
There in front of the whole damn nation
It was war, can’t predict the comin’ storm
Promise that you’ll keep me warm
I don’t wanna play this wrong
He said “yo, I’ve been lovin’ you so long
Ever since that Bone Thugs song
You ain’t gotta break down, you’re too strong”
Ooh, shots of Remy
Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin’
Ooh, I’m in love, it’s true
Yeah, damn I fucks with you
And we all make mistakes sometimes
But we muddle through
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do (Boy)
Oh baby, I’m in love, it’s true
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
With you, you, you
Baby, I’m in love, it’s true
Waves were breakin’ on that shore
As we were sneakin’ through that door
Had to leave by half past 4
Still I yearned to touch you more and more
It was war, can’t predict the comin’ storm
Promise that you’ll keep me warm
I don’t wanna play this wrong
He said “yo, I’ve been lovin’ you so long
Ever since that Bone Thugs song
You ain’t gotta break down, you’re too strong”
Ooh, shots of Remy
Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin’
Ooh, I’m in love, it’s true
Yeah, damn I fucks with you
And we all make mistakes sometimes
But we muddle through
I don’t know what I’m s’posed to do (Boy)
Oh baby, I’m in love, it’s true
And ooh, shots of Remy
Playing Confessions, and our bodies blendin’
Ooh, I’m in love, it’s true
Yeah, damn I fucks with you
And we all make mistakes sometimes
But we muddle through
I don’t know what I’m s’posed to do boy
Oh baby, I’m in love, it’s true
With you, you, you (with you, with you, with you, with you)
With you, you, you (oh yeah)
With you, you, you (oh yeah yeah)
Oh baby (baby), I’m in love, it’s true
