[Male] Monica baby, I'm sorry I know I was wrong, but I think we can work it out Just try to hear me out [Monica] Nah, you hear me out [Verse 1] I gave you so much love, but you had to play with my affections My heart was in your hands, but you had to play with all my feelings You got your mack on, but now I'm gone Cause I'd rather be all alone Away from all these silly games [Chorus] I gave you no reason why Just said do your thing on the side But now I'm gone Cause it will never be the same You were busy kicking it with your boys Instead of taking care of your girl But now I'm gone Gone away from you [Verse 2] I thought I knew you well But you ran away, didn't care about me You told so many lies Thought you could run away from this thing called reality But I'm long gone, I got to go on There's someone waiting for me To love me honestly [Chorus] I gave you no reason why Just said do your thing on the side But now I'm gone Cause it will never be the same, yeah Your were busy kicking it with your boys Instead of taking care of your girl But now I'm gone I'm gone away from you, oh my boy, hey I gave you no reason why Just said do your thing on the side But now I'm gone Cause it will never be the same, naw You were busy kicking it with your boys (You shoulda been taking care of your girl) Instead of taking care of your girl But now I'm gone But now I'm gone, oh now I'm gone, now I'm gon' away from you [Monica speaking] You see, the things you did to me back then, I'm long gon' from it now Baby I gotta go my own way They say (they say) That you never (miss a good thing) Until it's gon' (Until it's gone away) [Repeat chorus and ad libs until fade]
