Asking me to let you go
Is like asking me to give up life
Might seem a bit dramatic to you
When it comes to his love
It's more than just a habit to me
You see
Baby got the best of me
And I don't mean the perfect me
Everything I tried
To do to make him all mine
Failed miserably
As he manipulated
And told me nothing but lies
Seemed I was never enough
Cause every time I blinked my eyes
His body and his mind
Were always elsewhere
While I stayed home
Waitin for the phone to ring
Now it appears that I,
I was the only one
Who cared a thing about us
I can't say why I let it happen to me
Time and time again
But I knew for sure it was the end
When I found my back was turned
He makin' time with the sister
Of a friend
Baby got the best of me
And I don't mean the perfect me
Everything I tried
To do to make him all mine
Failed miserably
As he manipulated &
Told me nothing but lies
Baby got the best of me
Baby got the best of me
