Lyrics for Song: I Don't Ever Wanna See You Again
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Missy Elliott
Early one morning while you were asleep
I received a letter but there was no addressee
So I paid it no mind in fact,
I wanted to send it back
But something that I was feeling said open it.
It said, "Dear Reader, once close friend of mine.
I hope that this letter will find you in time.
Cause your love is ending and my life just beginning
With a woman that I know you hold dear to you."
And it made me wanna say,
Chorus:
I don't ever wanna see you again.
But I stuck by you 'til the end.
My conscience is clear and I can move on from here.
But I wish I can say the same for you, baby.
I don't ever wanna see you again.
Tell me why did it have to be my best friend?
You were messing round wit him,
I didn't wanna notice it.
I was true to my love for you.
It took me a minute to wake up and see
What the love of my life was doing to me.
I wanted to lay down and die
Cuz my pride wouldn't let me cry.
Somehow I knew I had to get over it.
He said he couldn't understand until he felt your touch.
Now he could see why I love you so much.
And that's so unfair I never thought I'd have to share
Your love that I thought was given to only me
And that's why,
Chorus
I don't ever wanna see you again.
But I stuck by you 'til the end.
My conscience is clear and I can move on from here.
But I wish I can say the same for you, baby.
I don't ever wanna see you again.
Tell me why did it have to be my best friend?
You were messing round wit him,
I didn't wanna notice it.
I was true to my love for you.
Baby say you love me (and you said you loved me, baby).
Love must have been blind cause I sure didn't see this one coming
(I once was blind, but now I see)
My best friend, huh? They say keep the ones you love close.
And your enemies even closer,
But I can't win for losing(you wanna close this thing to me, baby)
Cause the one I thought was a friend to me
Ended up to be my true enemy
Listen to me baby,
I gave you everything.
My love and my ring
And you why you leaving me?
Now I don't wanna see you again!
I don't ever wanna see you again.
But I stuck by you 'til the end.
My conscience is clear and I can move on from here.
But I wish I can say the same for you, baby.
I don't ever wanna see you again.
Tell me why did it have to be my best friend?
You were messing round wit him,
I didn't wanna notice it.
I was true to my love for you.
I don't ever wanna see you again.
But I stuck by you 'til the end.
My conscience is clear and I can move on from here.
But I wish I can say the same for you, baby.
I don't ever wanna see you again.
Tell me why did it have to be my best friend?
You were messing round wit him,
I didn't wanna notice it.
I was true to my love for you.
I don't ever wanna see you again.
But I stuck by you 'til the end.
My conscience is clear and I can move on from here.
But I wish I can say the same for you, baby.
I don't ever wanna see you again.
Tell me why did it have to be my best friend?
You were messing round wit him,
I didn't wanna notice it.
I was true to my love for you.
