I don't understand Why
See it's burning me to hold onto this
I know this is something I gotta do
But that don't mean I want to
What I'm trying to say is that I love you I just
I feel like this is coming to an end
And its better for me to let it go now
than hold on and hurt you
I gotta let it burn
It's gonna burn for me to say this
But it's comin' from my heart
It's been a long time coming
But we done been fell apart
Really wanna work this out
But I don't think you're gonna change
I do but you don't
Think it's best we go our separate ways
Tell me why I should stay in this relationship
When I'm hurting baby
I ain't happy baby Plus there's so many other things I gotta deal with
I think that you should let it burn
Your body don't want to
The party ain't No no
Let it burn
yeah ooh
Gotta let it burn
Hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
Yeah Let it burn ohh
Let it burn
Sendin' pages I ain't supposed to
Got somebody here but I want you
'Cos the feelin' ain't the same
Find myself callin' her your name
Ladies tell me do you understand
Now all my fellas do you feel my pain
It's the way I feel
I know I made a mistake
Now it's too late
I know she ain't comin' back
What I gotta do now
To get my shorty back
Ooo ooo ooo ooooh
Man I don't know what I'm gonna do
Without my booo
You've been gone for too long
It's been fifty leven days um teen hours
Imma be burnin' 'till you return
Ohhh.....
want to
'Cos the party ain't jumping like it used to
Let it burn let it burn
You gonna learn
Gotta let it burn woah
You know what's best for yourself but you
Someone else but you
Know it's all better
Know it's through
Hey... yeah ooh girl now I'm twisted
'cos one side of me is tellin' me
that I need to move on
On the other side I wanna break down and cry oooh
I'm twisted 'cos one side of me
is tellin' me that I need to move on
On the other side I wanna break down and cry yeah
Ooh ooooh ooh ooooh
