What you doin', Papa
Hi
No, uh uh
Say hi
Hi
Don't you know I'm no good for you
I've learned to lose you, can't afford to
Tore my shirt to stop you bleeding
But nothin' ever stops you leaving
Quiet when I'm coming home
And I'm on my own
You never got to meet Papa
He sweet proper, he keep mama
On my toes, I needed help
You booked a flight in three days
You'd meet papa
The waiting, the gazing
The painting, the raging
The raving, the pacing
The praying, the shaking
I must admit, I was breaking
I must admit, I was taking
I must admit, my heart was racing
Telephone waiting, make it
I just believed you waking
A memory in the making
Call me
Won't you call me
No, you gone
Are you gone already
I'll only hurt you if you let me
Call me friend, but keep me closer
Call me back
And I'll call you when the party's over
Quiet when I'm coming home
And I'm on my own
So deal, 'Nika, yes real, 'Nika
Don't stress, Onika, so blessed, Onika
Today, it's twelve three twenty-three
Your baby's three
He's the best, Onika
Set me, set me, set me free
Why didn't you come back to get me
Let me, let me, let me be
Why would anyone want to love me
Rich, yes, but are you happy
All this guilt you carry is heavy
You've already made your peace with me
One day, you'll have to forgive mommy
But she knows you know too much already
I'll only hurt you if you let me
Call me friend, but keep me closer
Call me back
And I'll call you when the party's over
Quiet when I'm coming home
And I'm on my own
I could lie
Say I like it like that
Like it like that
I could lie
Say I like it like that
Like it like that
Nothin' is better sometimes
Once we've both said our goodbyes
Let's just let it go
Let me let you go
Quiet when I'm coming home
And I'm on my own
I could lie
Say I like it like that
Like it like that
I could lie
Say I like it like that
Like it like that
