All The Befores — текст песни (Diana Ross)

(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)



Thought I could make it

Without you

Thought I could walk away

And never look back



Thought I had the secret

To stop these eyes from crying

Told myself he were no good

So whats the need in trying



But as you see, here I am

Loving you stronger than ever

Promising to be better

Getting into my head

I dont know how

To be nothing but yours



I guess I should have learned

From all the befores



I wrote a nice long letter

Explaining my reasons for leaving

Hoping it would tear you apart

And leave you grieving



I bet you didnt even read it

Youre so familiar with the lines

You just glanced up at the clock

cause you knew the exact time Id knock



Without pride

Here I stand

Waiting for your forgiveness

This is where I belong

Come what may

This time Ill stay

You might as well lock all the doors



I guess I should have learned

From all the befores



Promising to be better

And getting into my head

I dont know how to be nothing but yours



I guess I should have learned

From all the befores
