Two Wrongs

Wyclef Jean · Playlist: The Very Best Of Wyclef Jean [2012]

I'm jus sitting here playing the guitar

[City high igh igh igh igh]

Claudette, Wyclef



Wyclef

(Excuse me if you see me screaming

but deep in my mind I'm only dreaming

because if I wake girl and your, not by my side

I feel like half of me is no longer alive

So please shorty, before you walk out that door, boo-by

Would you listen to my song?)



Claudette

[If only, I give you one last chance

With the devil, you can no longer dance

You've got to be faithful, So we could be fruitful

Build a family and follow God's destiny

So just, before I walk to the block papi

I might listen to your song]



(Boo, before you walk out that door, listen!)



Chorus:

*They say two wrongs don't make it right

So if I'm wrong, I aint tryin' to fight

I'm tryin to have some dinner with some candlelight

Lay up in the bed and make love all night*

[So papi I won't leave, maybe I'll just stay

But promise me that you'll do the same]

(Girl I 'm gonna love you like I never loved)

[Touch me like you've never touched me]

(Yo if you give me the chance girl I'm gonna show you)



[Now baby I say, that I forgive you

But I ain't gonna forget what you put me through] (oh baby baby,)

(But I have grown from a thug to a man

Built my castle with bricks, and No longer with sand)

(oh girl) [And just before I walk to the block, baby

I might listen to your song



before you walk out that door, listen!



*Chorus



[I'm so used to the rain that I can't see the sunshine no more

I'm so used to the pain that the first sickness feels like a cure]

(But if only you gave me the keys to your soul

And let me in, I'm gonna love you,)

[over and over and over again, yeah yeah yeah]



*Chorus



(I'm not gon stay out on the block no more

I'll come home early girl, I promise) [Oooh yeah yeah..]
