How do I explain myself?
Could it be written in a book?
Is it visual?
‘Cause everything I’m doing, girl
It just don’t seem to be enough
What am I supposed to do?
How am I to show my love for you?
Everything I do
Girl, it’s all for you

Girl, give me half a chance (I don’t know/ say it ain’t so)
I’ll give you what you’ve been
Missing in a man
Girl, give me half a chance (I don’t know, I don’t know)
I’ll give you what you’ve been
Missing in a man

You got your own set of rules
And I’m tired of learning from you
So excuse me while I get away
I’ll be better off in my own space
Ain’t it funny how, now that I’m leaving
You wanna give me everything?
But that’s not how it’s supposed to be

Maybe I’ll give you a chance (another chance)
To give me all that I needed in a man (I needed in a man)
What makes you think you can? (what makes you think you can)
I need a reason

I’m already out the door (I’m already out the door)
Ain’t no need to say no more (say no more)
‘Cause I’m what you’re looking for
And you made that very clear
I was mad you left me here
It was so obvious
You didn’t care
Baby, I know you want to trust (I’ll do my best to make it up)
Baby please listen, don’t fuss
I’ll do whatever it would take (to make up for my mistake)
(There’s so much time) There’s time for us, Baby

I know it seems like I’m begging
But I don’t want you
To slip away
Now ain’t it funny when
You learn
I should’ve been your one concern and
All you wanna do now is conversate
When we already know it’s
Too late

Girl, give me half a chance (I don’t know/ say it ain’t so)
I’ll give you what you’ve been (I’ll make it better for you Baby)
Missing in a man
What makes you think you can? (what makes you think you can)
I need a reason
To give you one more chance

(Take you to dinner, rub your back all right)
(Go to the movies, make you feel alright)
