Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Werent't you the one who said that you don't want me anymore And how you need your space and give the keys back to your door And how I cry and try and try to make you stay with me But still you said the love was gone and that I had to leave
Now you Talking about a family Now you Saying I complete your dream Now you Saying I'm your everything Your confusing me, what your saying to me Don't play with me, don't play with me cause
What goes around comes around What goes up most come down Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me What goes around comes around What goes up most come down Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me
I remember when I was sitting home alone Waiting for you To 3 o'clock in the morn'
And when you came home you'd always had some sorry excuse And explaining to me like I was some kind of a fool I sacrifice the things I want just to do things for you But when it's time to do for me You never come through
Now you Wanna be a part of me Now you Have so much to say to me Now you Wanna make time for me What you doing to me, your confusing me Don't play with me, don't play with me cause
What goes around comes around What goes up most come down Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me What goes around comes around What goes up most come down Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me
I remember when I was sitting home alone Waiting for you To 3 o'clock in the morn' Night after night knowing something's going on What's that number for b go-a-go-a-gone
Lord knows it wasn't easy believe me Never thought you'd be the one that would deceive me And never do what your suppose to do No need to punch me boo cause I won't play you cause
What goes around comes around What goes up most come down Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me
What goes around comes around (yeah) What goes up most come down Gotta stop trying to come back to me
What goes around comes around What goes up most come down It's called Karma, baby And it goes around
What goes around comes around What goes up most come down Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me

Like a damselle in distress I'm stressin you My castle became a dungeon Cause I'm longing for you Feeling strong for you You my knight in shining armor See Your face in a silver moon All over the lagoon and it feels like
Dragon Days And the fires hot Like the desert needs water I need you alot Dragon days I need to be saved I'm missin you And the days drag on
Desparate for you baby Do you know what that means I feel like an addict must feel when he feigns In an act of desparation I get lost in my dreams Cause like a lady in waitin I'm waitin for you Prisoner tied over alligator water Waitin for my prince of paradise to come and take me away from these

Don't you wanna play

It would be It would be It would be, so simple
What it is ain't what it was What should it be, when it comes to you and How it seems ain't how it is There's been a change, when it comes to me and
Oh baby you, Oh baby me, Oh maybe we, Can try another day another way
All in my mind, I'm wonderin' why, We cannot find, What was left at the beginning If I could
Meet you again Kiss you again Miss you again (It would be, it would be so simple)
Cause I would Love you again Hold you again Need you again (It would be, it would be... could it be,could it be so simple)
Now it's hardly simple It's just simply hard When it comes to you and I find myself not being myself Just to avoid All this confrontation with
Oh baby you, Oh baby me, Oh maybe we, Can put this armor down and settle down
Oh it's off track That is a fact Can we get it back Get it back to the beginning If I could
Meet you again Kiss you again Miss you again (It would be, it would be so simple)
Cause I would Love you again Hold you again Need you again (It would be, it would be... could it be, could it be so simple)
Don't you know that it would be Don't you know that it would be Don't you know that it would be
It would be It would be It it would be It would be
Meet you again Kiss you again Miss you again (It would be, it would be so simple)
Cause I would Love you again Hold you again Need you again (It would be, it would be... could it be, it would be so simple)
