Her

Baby, I've been watching from a distance

And everything it rings familiarly, mmm

But I can't imagine what you must be thinkin'

'Cuz she can never be what I can be

Oh, loneliness has really got you twisted

And there's so much your eyes don't even see, yeah

And then I laid my eyes upon your woman

And to my surprise I saw me lookin' at me

But how could you be with her?

Her

You don't really love her, no

She

'Cuz she's not me and I

I

I won't stand by and watch you pretend

So baby how could you?

Her

You don't really love her, no

She

'Cuz she's not me and I

I

I can't stand by and watch you pretend

We parted so that we could make it better

'Cuz boy, you said we needed time and space, mmm

We vowed that it was only temporary

But I never thought that I would be replaced

Now you're living all our dreams with another

And you're giving everything you promised me

You're pretending we're together when we're nothing

But she's not me, she can't be, no

How could you be with her, oh baby?

Her

You don't really love her, no, no

She

'Cuz she's not me and I

I

I can't stand by and watch you pretend

So how could you play me?

Her

'Cuz don't really love her, no

She

'Cuz she's not me and I

I

I can't stand by and watch you pretend

I never thought that you would be hurting this way

And I never thought I'd be without you, without you

You didn't have to run away to find me again

'Cuz I've always been here I am the real thing

So don't you pretend, oh

Her

You don't really love her

She

'Cuz she's not me and I

I

I can't stand by and watch you pretend

Oh

Her

You don't really love her, no

She

'Cuz you really love and and I

I

I can't stand by and let you pretend

We can start again

Her

Ya gotta let her go baby

She

And bring your love to me

I

I want your love, I need your love

You can't pretend
