[ INTRO: MC Shan ]
She used to tell me that she loved me all the time
I`d turn to her and say that, I`m
Infatuated by your lovely smile
And some day soon we`re gonna walk the isle
She`d say, You`re my everything, my strenght for life
Be the mother of your children, as well as your wife
She used to tell me all the time, I`m her one and only
But she ran with another man and left me lonely
[ VERSE 1: MC Shan ]
Coincidental how I met her
But when I seen her I knew that I`d get her
Can`t let her step, she look too good
But my wears made me seem like a stone cold hood
I`m a lucky guy, so I press my luck
I step to her, ah what the fuck
Went her way, took a few steps past her
Got the nerve, and then I asked her
I said, Yo baby, and she started to reach
I said, Whoa, don`t get excited, that`s a figure of speech
She told me her name, gave her number and all
And when I stepped, she said I better call
It took about a month, but she was finally mine
Everything was going smooth, we were doin fine
After a while it wasn`t no thing
We were either holding hands or she was under my wing
She used to whisper in my hear I`m her one and only
But she ran with another man and left me lonely
[ CHORUS: TJ Swan ]
Girl, why`d you have to leave me that way?
I love you to this day
And it hurts to think of the words you used to say
Girl, why`d you have to leave for so long?
I never did you wrong
And it seems we had such a love that was so strong
[ VERSE 2: MC Shan ]
On the day she broke out, would you believe I cried?
And it hurts so much to think of how she lied
I shared everything to the very last penny
Somethin that you really can`t do with many
Since this young lady was such a big winner
I`d treat her all the time to a candle light dinner
Have a violinist play a real sweet song
And she never showed a sign that somethin was wrong
My boy used to say (Man Shan, I`d quit her)
But she seemed so happy everytime I`m with her
We used to hold hands and walk in the rain
And on the days I felt down she eased my pain
This was just too far-fetched to believe
To think that my girl would just up and leave
Imagine that - I just couldn`t
Cause I knew deep down in my heart she wouldn`t
All of a sudden a lot of things changed
She started actin funny, I mean a bit srange
We had little squabbles, arguments, fights
Wild stories in the days and stayed out nights
I`d say, Baby, where you been for all that time?
She cuddled me close and say that I`d
Be the one that she call her only
But she ran with another man and left me lonely
[ CHORUS: TJ Swan ]
Girl, why`d you have to leave me that way?
I love you to this day
And it hurts to think of the words you used to say
[ VERSE 3: MC Shan ]
She put it to me plain, couldn`t put it no clearer
Lipstick written on the bedroom mirror
Said, `I`m leaving you now, and I know that you`ll miss me
You`re probably saying: Damn, man, why she dissed me?
But you see, I felt that it was time to go
Then I packed my bags, and I`m leavin, so
You take care and I hope you live long
And don`t worry, there`s nothing that you did wrong
You`ll find the right girl someday, you`ll see
Why I`m the type of woman that must be free`
I said, Why me? and fell to the bed
Reached for the 9 and put it to my head
And thought about the words that she once said
(Shan, you know that you`re my one and only)
But she ran with another man and left my lonely
[ OUTRO: TJ Swan ]
O-o-o-oh girl, oh my girl
Why`d you have to leave?
Leave me so sad
Girl, you broke my heart
Oh, you drive me wild
You leave me by myself
All by myself
Girl, I don`t know what to do
I`m so mad
Girl, you drive me wild
Ooh so wild
Baby drive me crazy
Leave me by myself
Leave me all alone
By the phone
I don`t know what to do
I`m so mad
Girl, you drive me wild
Oh so wild
When I saw you leave me
Makes me want to cry
Girl, I`m breakin down
Breakin down
Yo, I don`t know what to do
(Love)
(Love)
