What's a Man to Do
Lyrics
Oh-oh
Oh-ooh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, yeah
Listen
I'd be a liar if I told you
That I didn't see it coming
Be more of a liar if I said
"Hey, I didn't want it to be something"
You deserve much better
For the love that you have shared
I know you won't believe it
But girl, I swear
That I got love for you
Big love for you
Even when I'm tripping
The fact remains that you will always be my baby
My baby
But dig the truth, baby, dig the truth
I can't hide my feelings
Especially when the whole world can see
That my heart is in two different places
I got you in my life and I wanna do right
But it's hard to let it go
When my love has two different faces
And I can't break ties 'cause they both look right
Someone tell me, what's a man to do?
When he's loving two
And he don't wanna lie
But he can't tell the truth
What's a man to do?
When he's loving two
But he can't keep his heart
In two different places (in two different places)
I know you feel it 'cause you stayed
There is much more to the story
But I'd be a fool to say I trust her and I'm always gonna love her
You know that you don't wanna hear
How I'm living on the edge, baby
So I just say, "Yeah, baby"
She ain't nothing but she is real
But why take her through it
When I still got love for you, big love for you
Even when I'm trippin'
The fact remains that you will always be my baby
My baby
But dig the truth, baby, dig the truth
I can't hide my feelings
Especially when the whole world can see
That my heart is in two different places (yeah-yeah)
I got you in my life and I wanna do right
But it's hard to let it go (my love)
When my love has two different faces (faces, ayy)
And I can't break ties 'cause they both look right
Someone tell me what's a man to do? (to do)
When he's loving two
And he don't wanna lie (oh no)
But he can't tell the truth (he can't tell the truth)
What's a man to do?
When he's loving two
But he can't keep his heart
In two different places (not in two different places)
I wanna tell you it's over
That I ain't thinking of her
I wanna really mean it
And I want you to see it
That I'm really trying to leave her behind
And I'm trying not to make you cry
I wanna tell you that I ain't playing games
And I'm dedicated to receive a change
But when I look in the mirror, it's the same old me
That my heart is in two different places (oh)
I got you in my life (my life) and I wanna do right
But it's hard to let it go (hard to let it go, oh-whoa)
When my love has two different faces (faces)
And I can't break ties 'cause they both look right (oh)
Someone tell me what's a man to do?
When he's loving two
And he don't wanna lie (wanna lie)
But he can't tell the truth
What's a man to do? (to do)
When he's loving two
But he can't keep his heart (no)
In two different places (not in two different places)
Not in two different places
