From the recording Why Do You Wanna Leave Me? (feat. Zuleema)

Lyrics
I’m laying here in bed but I’m nowhere near asleep
Wide awake, on my side, with all the secrets that you keep
You act like nothing’s wrong (wrong, wrong, wrong)
But I feel it all night long
Every word you throw my way
Is just another game that you play (ohh-yeahhhh,)
I bite my tongue but the words won’t stay
You pull me close then you pull back away (away, away)
Why do you wanna leave me?
Just say it, don’t deceive me (me, me)
It’s written in your eyes, but you won’t tell me why
So, why do you wanna leave me?
Or is this all just a lie?
Hold up a second there, lemme have my say
Every time I try to speak, you just actin’ all vague (so vague)
It’s been way too long since you made me feel
Like a red-blooded woman, made me squeal
I hold my ground, I won’t beg you to stay
Don’t shift the blame when you’re the one to change
Why do you wanna leave me?
Just face it, you never even see me (me, me)
It’s written in your eyes, but you won’t tell me why
So, why do you wanna leave me?
Or is this all just a lie?
You can break me down, or try to take away my name
You can twist the truth, and play your little game
But I won’t be the one who’s going to fade
Why do you wanna leave me?
Just say it, don’t deceive me
It’s written in your eyes, but you won’t tell me why
So, why do you wanna leave me?
Or is this all just a lie?
It’s written in your eyes (eyes)
And you won’t say why (whyyyyy)
I guess it’s just a lie
Do you wanna leave me?
