Tic
Tock
Can't
Stop
Crying tears
Time moves so slowly, you still not here
Tic
Tock
Damn
This clock
I'm gonna act like I'm strong
But will I be ok
When he's gone
Maybe I got it wrong
And he still loves me back
I can't lie
I know what he's gonna say
I can tell by his tone on the phone
I can see on his face
As he walks through that door
I just know it
I can feel it
I don't wanna hear him moan
He gon' tell me he don't love me
Anymore...
Slow
Breath
Don't
Lose it
Going out my mind
Wish that this wasn't happening
Breathe
Slow
Woah
Ooh oh
Everything I know
And everything I am is 'bout to leave
Maybe I got it wrong
And he still loves me back
I can't lie
I know what he's gonna say
I can tell by his tone on the phone
I can see on his face
As he walks through that door
I just know it
I can feel it
I don't wanna hear him moan
He gon' tell me he don't love me
Anymore...
What can I do about it
(Tell me what to do babe)
What can I do to stop it
(Yeah, yeah...)
Why can he see I'm more he needs
Why can't I be the girl of his dreams
I wish that he still love me, but I can tell
I can tell by his tone on the phone
(by his tone on the phone)
I can see on his face (on his face)
As he walks through that door
I know it
I can feel it ( I can feel it)
I don't wanna hear him moan
He gon' tell me he don't love me
Tell me he don't love me
He gon' tell me he don't love me
Anymore...
