A gentleman he walked right by
I stopped and starred and yelled, "Hey boy... you're fly"
He didn't look my way
Or give me the time of day
He played his cards right
Took me out 'til late that night
He had me on the defense
Though I sensed the tension was intentional
I'm sure you've heard this one before
Who knew I could fall so fast
He gotten past
I didn't let it show that my love had grown
I played it cool so we'd be friends until the end
Thats just the way love goes.
Two forward, one step back
Guess we were right on track
Said if I gave him time
He'd be the only one up on my mind
He got right through that door
Made me the one who wanted more
I'm sure you've heard this one before
Who knew I could fall so fast
He'd gotten past
I didn't let it show that my love had grown
I played it cool so we'd be friends until the end
Thats just the way love goes
Is this the part where you break my heart?
No... I wont wait around for that
What if Im wrong
About me and you
Wont hold my breath 'til its blue
Can't go on like this
I'm on a mission
On a mission
Can't go on like this
I'm on a mission
On a mission
