Monica - I Wrote This Song lyrics

[Intro] I can't believe he's gone Why'd you leave? Sometimes it hurts so bad [Verse I] He's the kind of guy that runs the street But he treats me good And he makes his dough illegally That's how he's taking care of me And I respect The fact That he's chosen that life But it keeps me up late at night And I just can't spend my time Wondering where he's at Is he okay Wanna be by his side But I commit a crime Bonny to his Clyde And I don't wanna live that way [Chorus] I love my baby so But he's not here no more Hard for me to understand So I wrote him this song When I look him in his eyes Knew I couldn't change his mind So I wrote this melody And I'm saying sweet goodbye [Verse II] Though he promised that he could never put me in harm's way That it is something that he can't control Cause the game Remains the same And now he says he wants out of it But he's in too deep And the only way that he would go is k**ing him or leaving me So this is where I'm at And it hurts so bad That I had to choose If I wanna live or die with you I love my baby so But he's not here no more Hard for me to understand So I wrote him this song When I looked him in his eyes Knew I couldn't change his mind So I wrote him this melody I'm singing sweet goodbye [Chorus:] [Bridge:] I tried to give him hope And promised him my life But I don't know what made him want to leave this life And as he went away A tear fell from my eye And there'no turning back...there's only goodbye [Chorus:] I love my baby so But he's not here no more Hard for me to understand So I wrote him this song When I looked him in his eyes Knew I couldn't change his mind So I wrote him this melody I'm singing sweet goodbye [Repeat Chorus]
