You called me from the office to say you're working late
Well I admire your dedication but where's the extra pay?
I meet you at the front door with wine on your breath
I couldn't help but notice there's a button off your dress
Say you and your girlfriends just stopped to eat a bite
Well I was born in the dark but it wasn't last night
Friday I came home and you was lookin fit to kill
Said you're going to your sisters cause your sisters feeling ill
I called her house all weekend just to see if she was fine
I never got an answer musta called a hundred times
She suddenly got better ya'll took in all the sites
I was born in the dark but it wasn't last night
Well I ask you why you never wear that purrty neglacie
It seems that you misplaced it at least that's what you say
You think I made it up and I don't trust you anymore
But I found it in the trashcan and both the straps were tore
Don't remember how it happened was probably too tight
I was born in the dark but it wasn't last night
You tell me that you love me but I know it's just a lie
I was born in the dark but it wasn't last night
Tell the truth now
