A Letter I'll Never Send

[ VERSE 1 ]

How you're doin? Fine, I hope.. well, I'm not okay

I wanna tell you how I miss you day after day

How I pray that you come back, back in my life

So I can keep my promise that you'll be my wife

One more chance is all I'm askin, it won't be like before

Your emotions going up and down like a see-saw

As I sit and write this letter it's a rainy night

I can't help but think about how that made us alright

When it was storming we would listen to the quiet storm

With the red light on, you're so tender and warm

Then you'd kiss me with a passion that no girl can match

I'd kiss you the same way, and our bodies would latch

In ecstacy, all my dreams became reality

To myself I say: God, she is so pretty

Your whispers are gentle when you whisper my name

When you whispered that you're comin always made me came

You're more than a lover, you're my best friend

Here's a letter to you, girl, that I'll never send

[ VERSE 2 ]

Romantic dinners, the late nights at the beach

You would call me your plum, and you was my peach

We would walk in the sand, holdin hands

Everything came natural without no plans

Valentine is comin up: Would you be my Valentine?

Don't let me get addicted to this Nighttrain wine

I know I took you for granted, played with you like a toy

When you gave me your love that brought you so much joy

I'm only human, baby, please forgive my mistakes

Thought my heart was stone, that it could never break

Now it's broken into pieces beyond repair

I can't love another girl, cause I have no spare

Here I am in my room, listening to Sade

With my friends I try to front like it's all okay

Do you hear my plead, vibrating your soul

This hurting feeling is out of control

You're more than a lover, you're my best friend

Here's a letter to you, girl, that I'll never send

[ VERSE 3 ]

It was your idea for me to know your best friend

You needed someone to talk to, you said, "Dee, please lend

A companionship, spend time with her"

It was written on the wall what might occur

I say your friend fell in love with me time after time

You said, "Listen, Donald-D, it's all in your mind"

Until that night she said "Come over" - and not with you

She said she wasn't feeling well, but made dinner for two

We had too much to drink, your trust I disobeyed

I shoulda walked away when she dropped her negligee

I was weakened by temptation, like Adam with Eve

She promised not to tell, but then deceived

The untold truth, what happened under her roof

And the bad thing about it is I have no proof

Only request that I cheated, distroyed your trust

Look what a one night stand has done to us

You're more than a lover, you're my best friend

Here's a letter to you, girl, I'll never send

[ VERSE 4 ]

Lonely nights I spend with my TV set

And a vision of a girl who has swept

Me off of my feet, made my heart skip a beat

And that's when I realized you was mine to keep

But I don't eat, can't much time for sleep

Because depression has sunken very deep

I love you, baby, more than you'll ever know

What is fame and fortune when I cannot show

A share of care, run my fingers through your hair

Deep down inside I know you wonder where

I am right now, but there's this word called 'pride'

That's keeping you from being by my side

I can't hide, so I let the tears fall free

Other girls say forget you and go with me

But you're the only one, baby, with the magical touch

I'm not ashamed to tell the world that I love you so much

You're more than a lover, you're my best friend

Here's a letter to you, girl, that I'll never send
