Danny - When You Get There lyrics

[Verse 1] Yo I could never forget, the day I saw you at school For the first time, girl you must've thought you was cool 'Cause you were dressed in all white with your hair pulled up I knew I'd fall in love if I wasn't careful enough But our friendship was tainted before it even started The whispers and the rumors, you swore you'd disregard 'em 'Cause you wanted so bad to believe me, I'm glad you believed me We became best friends gradually Left all the drama in the past Explained that we were friends to everybody and they mama when they asked But the people in the ghetto understood me wrong And tried to knock me off the pedestal you put me on But when it got out of hand, I didn't jot out a plan I'd just sit back and watch the show And now I just sit back and watch you go I'm missing you so bad, you're the sister I never had [Chorus] They say you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone So I guess that all I've got is this song Girl you, got me so weak 'cause we don't even speak But what do I have to show for it, only this beat Only this rhyme, trapped for a moment in time Let me know how you've been doing, baby show me a sign When you reach true happiness, just give me a call Just call me when you get there [Verse 2] Now the bright lights around me seem dimmer My face seems slimmer 'cause I skipped lunch, I missed dinner But uh, more importantly I miss you I'd wipe my face with a tissue But I've got so many issues That I can't seem to stop the tears from fallin' "Quit messin' around (Jasmine), damn...just call him" Nope! I want you to call when you get ready Not because my legs feel like spaghetti Every time I take a little walk down memory lane Remember Jerry? Remember Elaine? It's a little too soon to say goodbye I knew I should've told you 'bout the money I was making on the side But I was full of pride and I didn't wanna lose you Let's sit and talk a while, sharing stories like we used to Get used to me askin' to come back in my life You almost left me once but I won't let it happen twice [Chorus]
