Chorus
 
 Girl i gotta go i can't stay
 
 You said things would change
 
 But girl things are still the same
 
 Girl i gotta go i can't stay
 
 We stay together putting the front on
 
 I'd rather be on my own
 
  
  When we first met things were fine
 
 We went out to dine
 
 We strolled the beach, holding hands sharing quality time
 
 What happened between then and now
 
 The love we shared was lost somehow
 
 (my freinds tried to tell me)
 
 That we're moving too fast
 
 But how could i know the feelings would pass
 
 It wouldn't last
 
 I know i should have left a long time ago
 
 But i stayed to see
 
 Still hoping and praying you still love me
  
 
 Chorus (x2) (ad lib)
  
 
 Listen
 
 I took you in treated your children as mine
 
 Then we laid and made love
 
 And you had my son what a precious time
 
 I did all that i could to get through to you
 
 To let you know girl it's you i was living for
 
 (but you let your mind play games on you)
 
 Then when i'm not around
 
 You think that i don't know
 
 That you're passing time with the guy next door
 
 I gave you all that i had
 
 You didn't love me one ounce
 
 So like a basket ball i gotta bounce
  
 
 Chorus (ad lib)
  
 
 Bridge
 
 Listen
 
 Baby can you tell me
 
 Where i went wrong yeah
 
 All i ever wanted baby baby baby
 
 Was a happy home (ohhh) to call my own (ohhh)
 
 I can't take no more (no doubt)
 
 So i'm telling you
 
 Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
  
 
 Chorus (x2)(ad lib)
  
 
 Break it down
 
 Break it down
 
 Uhmmmm
 
 Cause i wanna talk to my people this evening

 And let em know it takes a fool to learn (it takes a fool)
 
 That love don't love nobody
 
 That's why i can truly say in my heart
