(baby ...baby .. baby)

[Brandy:]
Take a good look at me
I done cried from the lies
That hurt so bad inside
I can't even think
Aint never had nothing to me bring me down to the core
Til I hit the paint
Here to show you a compromise of heart for I'm fallin apart
Til there are no remains
What had me thinking your word was your bond
(dont you know)
Didn't have to call it love if you knew it was a situation you werent ready for
I could see if your feelings had changed but damn you just slammed the door
You told me the one that you said you'd put down your whole life for
I can comprehend the deck of cards you dealt me

[Brandy:]
How can you turn on me
(how can you how can you)
How can you purposely
(how can you how can you)

[(chorus) Brandy:]
Lesson learned house can burn we're close to heat
Betcha words don't mean nothing to me
Thought you said, thought you said that you loved me
Thought you said, thought you said that you need me
Thought you said thought you said you complete me
Thought you said, you were never gonna let it go
Thought you said, thought you said when you held me
Thought you said, thought you said when'd you tell me
Thought you said no one else could replace me
Thought you said you were never gonna let it go

[Diddy:]
The times that you werent there
The times that you left me here
The times that I needed you
You know my love is true
My passions inside for you
The nights that I cried for you
A man has these feelings too
Same shit that chall go thru
I been here before
Sometimes the pain you ignore
Until its right at your door
And then you just cant no more
Why does love feel this way
Why does it hurt so bad

[Diddy:]
Cant even look me in the face
Why does love hurt this way

[Brandy:]
How can you turn on me
(how can you how can you)
How can you purposely
(how can you how can you)

[(chorus) Brandy:]
Lesson learned house can burn we're close to heart
Betcha words don't mean nothing to me
Thought you said, thought you said that you loved me
Thought you said, thought you said that you need me
Thought you said, thought you said you complete me
Thought you said you were never gonna let it go
Thought you said, thought you said when you held me
Thought you said, thought you said when'd you tell me
Thought you said no one else could replace me
Thought you said you were never gonna let it go

[Diddy:]
The heartache and pain
Sometimes it goes to your brain
Sometimes it makes you insane
Sometimes our joy is our pain
'cause it tears u apart these affairs of the heart
I think im strong but im not
And when i look in ya eyes you know it kills me inside
But I cant wait for that day that you come back to me girl
After we both go away its just to see if its real
Theres no denying the fact its meant to be
If you let it go and then they come back.
If this is our last dance we need to practice our steps,
The situation I left behind but your hearts what I kept,
You said I did you wrong you did me wrong we was both at fault
And of course you lost me with your alibis and all of your talking
And most important I just question my self

[Brandy:]
The pain is taking over I can't believe
(I need your hand)
What happened then compared to now is dreams
(I need your hand)
And I know now that your future ain't me

[Diddy:]
I cant sleep, I cant breathe, I aint eat in days, stomach pains from arguing
Didn't you cheat on me that's how the problems started
And as far as im concerned we learned our lesson
Well its all in the healing and that process has got me stressin
Im so pressured i'm so physically drained
I aint thinkin straight I loved you more than my own self
Although I couldnt bear the pain of seein my old self
Young wild uncontroled self
I love you grl I dont need no one else

[(chorus) Brandy:]
Lesson learned house can burn we're close to heart
Betcha words don't mean nothing to me
Thought you said, thought you said that you loved me
Thought you said, thought you said that you need me
Thought you said, thought you said complete me
Thought you said you were never gonna let it go
Thought you said, thought you said when you held me
Thought you said, thought you said when'd you tell me
Thought you said no one else could replace me
Thought you said you were never gonna let it go

[Diddy:]
When I look in your eyes you know it kills me inside

[Brandy:]
Didn't you, didn't you, didn't you, didn't you, oo ooo

[Brandy:]
Lesson learned
House can burn
We're close to heat
Bet your words don't mean nothing to me

[Diddy:]
These affairs of the heart I think i'm strong but im not

[Brandy:]
Thought you said thought you said that you love me
Thought you said thought you said that you need me

[Diddy:]
Come back to me girl

[Brandy:]
How can you how can you
Thought you said thought you said you complete me
Thought you said you were never gonna let it go
