Monica - Breathe lyrics

[Verse 1:] I've tried And I've lied to myself To stop the tears But it's been too many years And you keep doing the same thing Making the same old promises Before you play with my heart again I'ma keep it one hundred It's been on my mind And before you get to lying [Chorus:] Let me tell you I'm sorry (Sorry) But I can't be here anymore (No, no, no) Baby I'm sorry (Sorry) Not even love can make me stay another day You're holding on to me When I know we need to be free I just need some time So I can breathe [Verse 2:] You say You want me by your side But you won't even try To listen when I'm telling you the simple things (Baby it's the simple things that matter in life) I don't wanna fight you no more I don't wanna waste no time I'ma keep it one hundred This been on my mind So don't lie [Repeat Chorus:] [Bridge:] Get back what you stole Rebuild what you broke down Won't be no more crying myself to sleep I'm over you Time is over due No need for another lie Cause I made up my mind [Repeat Chorus:]
