It Hurts Too Much To Stay

Candlelight and chocolate kisses

Calls to say you missed me when we started

Your nails was done, your hair was pressed

I miss the way you used to dress when I met you

I really, really do

I gave my best for years

My time was wasted, yeah

See, I shared your fears

And the tears you cried, I tasted

Baby, I loved your kiss

I know you did

Opened up our home, yes I did

Paid your mamma's bills

Gave you all when you had nothing

Love you so, can't let go

Never thought I'd be without you

Can't imagine life without you

Walk away, every day

Told me that you'd never leave

But now you say it hurts too much to stay

Too much to stay

Said it's hard for me

It was hard for me

Your lover's staying with his mom

Tell me was it worth the drama, baby

See we got our own kids, yeah

If there had to be another

Why go trickin' in the gutter

And driving our shit

Boo hoo hoo baby

Say I know he can't

Put that thing down like I do, no

Baby that was the past

You don't roll like you used to

Said what's my motivation

Girl I'm better off alone, yeah

Tell me why can't we just walk away

Why are we so torn

Repeat 1 while:

Baby, baby, baby

Never meant to hurt you, no no no

You walk away from me

Tell me why did you change

Why did you change

Can it be all that we have hoped and prayed for

Now is gone away

Oh baby everything (Everything)

Our hopes and dreams

They are no longer

We can't go back

The way it used to be

Said now, now, really

Repeat 1 while:

I really love you baby, baby

Oh, oh, oh yeah

See I never thought

But you changed

Whoo oh

Why you have to do me this way babe

Never meant to hurt you baby

Got me tossin' and turnin' and

And I dont' know, I don't know, can't you see

Gerald, can't it be the same

No never again, no

Never again, no

No

I'm callin your name

I hear ya callin' me

Gerald, I love ya babe

Said I'm coming when you call me baby

Baby, yeah

No, no, no, come home to me baby

Said you got me walking around all mixed up

And I don't know what to say baby

Tell me that you love me

Don't know what to do baby

Just tell me that you need me

I love you, I need you, I want you

Come to me Kelly

You didn't love her, and you didn't need her

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Kelly

No, no, no, no, no, no

What do I have to do

To convince you

Come home, I really love you

Try to make you understand that I'm only just a man

Goin' to jail cuz I killed your girl

Goin' to jail cuz I killed your girl

Come on now, don't do this now

Come on now, don't do this now

Your body belongs to me

She can't have you no matter what she thinks

No, no, no, no, no, no

No no no
