With Him
Babyface · Face 2 Face
So ya' never meant to hurt nobody
Well I think your full of it, yeah so
Girl if ya realy really didn't wanna hurt nobody
You wouldn't slept with my best friend, baby
And I bring insult to my injury
You weren't a big discrete
And while the world stood witness
To my embarrassment
You put a knife inside of me
::Chorus::
How could you fall in love with him, baby
How could you give your heart to him, baby
Thought we'd grow old
As lovers
Together til' the end
How could you fall
fall in love with him
and I know we've had our, up and downs
And that I do admit, yeah
But sometimes lovers go astray
But you've made it permanent
Oh I can't be that understanding
My heart's just not that big ( no it ain't, no it ain't)
I can take the pain
Of infidelity
But I can't take you with him
::Chorus::
Well I think your full of it, yeah so
Girl if ya realy really didn't wanna hurt nobody
You wouldn't slept with my best friend, baby
And I bring insult to my injury
You weren't a big discrete
And while the world stood witness
To my embarrassment
You put a knife inside of me
::Chorus::
How could you fall in love with him, baby
How could you give your heart to him, baby
Thought we'd grow old
As lovers
Together til' the end
How could you fall
fall in love with him
and I know we've had our, up and downs
And that I do admit, yeah
But sometimes lovers go astray
But you've made it permanent
Oh I can't be that understanding
My heart's just not that big ( no it ain't, no it ain't)
I can take the pain
Of infidelity
But I can't take you with him
::Chorus::
