(Male)   Monica baby, I'm sorry   I know I was wrong, but I think we can work it out   Just try to hear me out      (Monica)   Nah, you hear me out      (Verse 1)   I gave you so much love, but you had to play with my affections   My heart was in your hands, but you had to play with all my feelings   You got your mack on, but now I'm gone   Cause I'd rather be all alone   Away from all these silly games      (Chorus)   I gave you no reason why   Just said do your thing on the side   But now I'm gone   Cause it will never be the same      You were busy kicking it with your boys   Instead of taking care of your girl   But now I'm gone   Gone away from you      (Verse 2)   I thought I knew you well   But you ran away, didn't care about me   You told so many lies   Thought you could run away from this thing called reality   But I'm long gone, I got to go on   There's someone waiting for me   To love me honestly      (Chorus)   I gave you no reason why   Just said do your thing on the side   But now I'm gone    Cause it will never be the same, yeah      Your were busy kicking it with your boys   Instead of taking care of your girl   But now I'm gone   I'm gone away from you, oh my boy, hey      I gave you no reason why   Just said do your thing on the side   But now I'm gone   Cause it will never be the same, naw      You were busy kicking it with your boys (You shoulda been taking care of your girl)   Instead of taking care of your girl   But now I'm gone    But now I'm gone, oh now I'm gone, now I'm gon' away from you   (Monica speaking)   You see, the things you did to me back then, I'm long gon' from it now   Baby I gotta go my own way   They say (they say)   That you never (miss a good thing)   Until it's gon' (Until it's gone away)      (Repeat chorus and ad libs until fade)
