Gerald Levert - It Hurts Too Much to Stay Lyrics

Candle light and chocolate kisses
Calls to say you missed me when we started

Gerald:
Your nails was done, your hair was pressed
I miss the way you used to dress
When I met you
I really do

Kelly:
I gave my best 4 years, my time was wasted

Gerald:
See I shared your fears, and the tears you cried I tasted

Kelly:
Baby, I loved your kids, opened up my home. Yes I did

Gerald:
Paid your mama's bills. Gave you all when
you had nothing.

Chorus
Love you so, can't let go.
Never thought I'd be without you
Can't imagine life without you
walk away, everyday.
Told me that you'd never leave.
But now you say it hurts too much to stay.

Kelly:
Too much to stay

Gerald:
Said it's hard for me
Your lover's stayin with his mom
Tell me was it worth the drama oh baby
See we got our own kids yeah

Kelly:
If there had to be another.
Why go trick'n in the gutter
And drivin our sh.... mmmmmm
boo baby

Gerald:
See I know he can't put that thang down like I do.

Kelly:
Baby that was the past. You don't roll like you used

Gerald:
Said what's my motivation
Girl I'm better off alone.

Kelly:
Tell me why can't we just walk away.

Gerald and Kelly:
Why are we so torn?

Chorus

Both:
Never meant to hurt you.
G: you walk away from me
tell me why did you change

Kelly:
Can't it be all that we have hoped and prayed for
now its gone away

Gerald:
Oh baby, everything. Our hopes and dreams they are
no longer. We can't go back the way it used to be
said now really.

Chorus

Gerald:
Tryin to make you understand that I only just a man

Kelly:
Going to jail cause I kill yo girl
Going to jail cause I kill yo girl

Gerald:
Come on now don't do this now
come on now don't do this now

Kelly:
Your body belongs to me
She can't have you no matter what she thinks
No no no no no no no no no
