Life can be strange, somethings we forget
or rearrange in time, lose the past
Tell me the truth, tell me how can I know
that this new love of ours, that its gonna last
I need your strength and I feel your worth
with you I feel protected from all harm
Where do we go from here it's clear
You erase the fear in me, that keeps me alone
Where do we go from here I know
No matter what the road, your love will lead me home
What's in a name, his life just a game
we color then erase (we've been erased), when we lose face
How many lives, tell me how many tri
I'm Gone
Background Vocals: R. Kelly
Everything you said to me
I took to heart
Boy that you never knew
Someday we'd part
Wanna be a playa see
Wanna mess around on me
Every night you hit the streets
Shoulda took care of family
All I do
(All I do is)
Is lie in my bed
(Is lie in my bed)
Lonely at night
(Late at night)
It ain't right
(That's why I gotta say goodbye)
1- Seven long years
Nothing but tears
Baby, I'm gone
Won't see me no more
Seven long years
Nothin' but tears
Baby, I'm gone
Won't see me no more
Say I wanna get down with you
You say you don't feel so well
Said you worked that double shift
My heart feels something else
So I went and checked it out
Cuz last week you said the same
Called up the Drake Hotel
You was under your middle name
All I do
(All I do is)
Is lie in my bed
(Lie there in my bed)
Lonely at night
(Waiting on you)
It ain't right
(To come home to me)
Repeat 1
Baby, anything you do to me
I've already done to you
And there's nothing you can say
And there's nothing you can do
Repeat 1
Repeat 1 while:
See I never really stopped loving you
I just got tired of putting up with your Miss
Been your fool
Seven years
I tell ya this move is something I won't regret
You can save the drama
You might as well run back to yo' baby's mama
Cuz by the time you wake up
I'll be long gone
Yes I will
Seven years of the life
All I did was sacrifice
Now I'm out the door
You won't see me no more
Seven years
Nothing but tears
Now I'm gone
You won't see me no more
