Thats Why I Lied

Thats Why I Lied - New Edition

Listen up ma I got something to tell you yeah hum

Gotta play the game play the game

Strictly for the ladies come on

There's no kisses from you when I leaving in the morning

There's no roses for you when I know I've hurt your feelings

Don't know what happen to us girl I never saw it coming

How did love go down hill

I think I know what cheating men feel

I hit the bar bought a drink slip it slow just to think

Then a star with a big Gucci

She said it looks like you need a friend

The lonely girl is knocking let me in

We can leave no delay take my mind off this pain

To go to bed in the Marriot Suite

Tell wifey that I might be working late

Or hope I never have to say I lied

To keep my sex to keep my house (I'm sorry girl)

To still be here to work things out

To find some way babY to make it up to you

That's why I lied

To keep your hug to keep your kiss

To still be here to raise our kids

To keep my ring baby I couldn't tell the truth

That's why I lied

So nervous these days got a feeling she'll be calling

I know hurt is on the way when I dream of angels fallen

There's no perfect way to say how my vows to you were broken

Who is that on the phone let me explain before you go

I hit the bar bought a drink slip it slow just to think

Then a star with a big Gucci

She said it looks like you need a friend

The lonely girl was knocking I let her in

We leave with no delay take my mind off this pain

To go to bed in the Marriot Suite

I know I said that I was working late

But you found out today I lied

To keep my sex to keep my house

To still be here to work things out

To find some way baby to make it up to you

That's that's why I lied

To keep your hug to keep your kiss

To still be here to raise our kids

To keep my ring baby I couldn't tell the truth

That's why that's why I lied

From the moment I heard you say you're leaving (don't go)

It was the worse I thought could happen (for sure)

I'm already missing your loving your laughter the morning after

It's not a home without you here

I swear I learn my lesson baby

To keep my sex to keep my house

To still be here to work things out

To find some way baby to make it up to you

That's why that's why that's why I lied

To keep your hug to keep your kiss

To still be here to raise our kids

To keep my ring baby I couldn't tell the truth

That's why I lied yeah

To keep my sex to keep my house

To still be here to work things out

To find some way baby to make it up to you

That's why I lied

To keep your hug to keep your kiss

To still be here to raise our kids

To keep my ring baby I couldn't tell the truth

That's why that's why I lied

Strictly for the ladies my black sisters
