Jamelia Lyrics

If I can't be a man, tell me what I am?
Tell me what I'm here for
If I can't be the one, tell her what I've done
What good can I be?

Did I not do enough to save the two of us?
What more could I give her?
What more could I do to see her point of view?
Why can't I believe her?

Sometimes the things they say
I can't take it no more
They think you've gone too far
Oh, oh

Oh, Jamelia
You got to to go away
And take time
Oh, oh

Sometimes the things they say
I can't take it no more
They think you've gone too far
Oh, oh

Oh, Jamelia
You got to go away
And take time
Oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
