Ooh, the word is you're leaving
The word is you're gone
Word is we're over and you're moving on
And the more I hear about it
I rest my case...
They say you've got your reasons
And all I got are rhymes
Don't you know I heard it
'Bout a hundred thousand times
And the more I think about it
I rest my case...
Everybody choosin' up their sides tonight
Everybody sure who's wrong or right, yeah
You can say what you want now
To put me in my place
But I swear that I ain't talkin'
till we go face to face, yeah
Darlin' till I hear it from you
I rest my case...
Everybody wonderin' what I'm gonna do
Think I'll hang around here
Just wait till you're through
Yeah the more I think about it
I rest my case...
And I hear you're telling everyone
You can't buy a thrill
Why don't you just step this up and go for the kill
Yeah the more I hear about it
I rest my case...
Everybody choosin' up their sides tonight
Everybody sure who's wrong or right, yeah
So you say what you want now
To put me in my place
But I swear that I ain't talkin'
till we go face to face, yeah
Darlin' till I hear it from you
I rest my case...
You can throw yourself on public opinion
Hope somebody gonna hear your appeal
If you're waiting for me to get down on my knees
Darlin' I ain't cutting that deal...yeah
Ooh, ooh I rest my case...
Ooh, ooh I rest my case...
Everybody choosin' up their sides tonight
Everybody sure who's wrong or right, yeah
So you say what you want now
To put me in my place
But I swear that I ain't talkin'
till we go face to face, yeah
Darlin' till I hear it from you
I rest my case...
Darlin' till I hear it from you
I rest my case...
Darlin', darlin' till I hear it from you
I rest my case...
