Never Keeping Secrets - Babyface

Sin circles in the back of your head Ignore everyone else we met Flip the switch, let the circuits connect Let me be the night you'll never forget And if we end up on the edge of nowhere Lose street lamps, run dry on cab fare We can walk to the edge of the seven seas Split the tides, there's no time when it's you and me, yeah Can we erase every rhyme or reason? Throw me a line, it's our day, let's seize it You gotta know, you've got to know I need it Tired of losing by keeping secrets Tired of losing by keeping secrets Pocket watches, they swing side to side Hand on my hips, got me hypnotized Shooting stars crash, crack and collide In the shadows we come alive Rub your skin on my skin to ignite Burn it down, baby, let's play with fire Melt my mouth with a taste of your sour-sweet Split the tides, there's no time when it's you and me, yeah Can we erase every rhyme or reason? Throw me a line, it's our day, let's seize it You gotta know, you've got to know I need it Tired of losing by keeping se- Tired of losing by keeping secrets Can we erase every rhyme or reason? Throw me a line, it's our day, let's seize it Can we erase every rhyme or reason? Reason, reason, re-re-re-re-re-re- I don't wanna play hide and seek 'Less it's between your sheets Let's make this 1-2-3, oh yeah I don't wanna play hide and seek 'Less it's between your sheets You gotta know, you've got to know I need it Tired of losing by keeping secrets Tired of losing by keeping secrets Can we erase every rhyme or reason? Throw me a line, it's our day, let's seize it You gotta know, you've got to know I need it Tired of losing by keeping se-

So here's my honest opinion I think we're way past forgiveness To make up now is a sin So let me say it again How could you expect a boy like me To ever stand a chance against a girl like you? But don't give up on me just yet Just yet I thought I needed you But no one needs someone who can't choose Between true love or just lust I guess the world's not enough I thought I needed you But no one needs someone who can't choose Between true love or just lust I guess the world's not enough I remember all the days Granted, grief and the pain lasted weeks Hope seemed so out of reach How could you expect a boy like me To ever stand a chance against a girl like you? I thought I needed you But no one needs someone who can't choose Between true love, or just lust I guess the world's not enough I thought I needed you But no one needs someone who can't choose Between true love or just lust I guess the world's not enough You always looked better lying on your back Than you did lying to my face (to my face) You always looked better lying on your back Than you did lying to my face You always looked better lying on your back Than you did lying to my face And when I had your back against the wall You lied through your teeth just to see me fall So many countless days I spent calling your name I feel nothing but shame Nothing but shame I thought I needed you But no one needs someone who can't choose Between true love, and a fuck I guess the world's not enough I thought I needed you But no one needs someone who can't choose Between true love, or just lust I guess the world's not enough

There was a girl I used to know She was oh so beautiful But she's not here anymore She had a college degree Smart as anyone could be Had so much to live for But she fell in love With the wrong kinda man He abused her love and treated her so bad There was not enough education in her world That could save the life of this little girl How come, how long It's not right, it's so wrong Do we let it just go on Turn our backs and carry on Wake up, for it's too late Right now, we can't wait She won't have a second try Open up your hearts As well as your eyes She tried to give a cry for help She even blamed things on herself But no one came to her aid Nothing was wrong as far as we could tell That's what we'd like to tell ourselves But no, it wasn't that way So she fell in love With the wrong kinda man And she paid with her life For loving that man So we cannot ignore We must look for the signs And maybe next time We might save somebody's life How come, how long It's not right, it's so wrong Do we let it just go on Turn our backs and carry on Wake up, for it's too late Right now, we can't wait She won't have a second try Open up your hearts As well as your eyes I on occasion met that guy It's been a feeling deep inside Something about him wasn't right The way he proves himself a man By beatin' his woman with his hands Oh I wish she'd seen the light (Hey) How can someone like that Call himself a man (He's not a man) Coz In reality he's far more less than that And we cannot ignore Whenever we see the signs 'Cause any kinda of abuse God knows it's a crime How come (how come...), how long (how long...) It's not right (it's not right...), it's so wrong (so wrong...) Do we let it just go on (just go...) Turn our backs and carry on Wake up (wake up...), for it's too late (too late...) Right now (now...), we can't wait (we can't wait...) She won't have a second try Open up your hearts As well as your eyes...
