SPOKEN
Whitney: Um?hey Deb.
Deborah Cox: Mmm hmm?
WH: Thank you for being woman enough to come.
DC: Whitney, what`s this about?
SUNG
WH: I know he`s leaving me for you.
DC: Who said that? Who told you that it`s true?
WH:
What is he telling you?
Could it be the same things that he told me?
DC: He told me that he loved me.
WH: I heard that.
DC: He told me I was [harmony] beautiful. How did you know? Howdid you know?
WH: Because I played that scene before.
CHORUS:
This is a retake of my life.
I was his star for many nights.
Now the roles have changed,
And you`re the leading lady in his life.
Lights, camera, now you`re on.
Just remember you`ve been warned.
Enjoy it now, `cause it won`t last.
Same script, different cast.
DC:
What you`re saying could be true.
But how can I take advice from you?
WH:
I`m not hating,
But I wish the one before me
Would have warned me too babe.
DC: Don`t say no more. La La La La La La La La La
WH: Uncover your ears, girl.
DC: I`m not listening. La La La La La La La La La
WH:
But I know you hear me.
Maybe my reasons are wrong,
But I know that you believe me.
CHORUS
DC: It`s your fault you didn`t love him enough.
WH:
That`s the problem.
I loved him too much.
And when you love him
He becomes unattracted to you.
DC: Oh no, he`s changed and I`ll prove you wrong.
WH: No you won`t.
DC: So go away. Leave us the hell alone! He loves me.
WH: He`ll hurt you.
DC: He`ll stay with me.
WH: He`ll leave you.
WH and DC: For sure! For sure!
CHORUS
DC:
This is a retake of my life.
You were his star for many nights.
But now the roles have changed.
I`m the leading lady in his life.
Lights, camera, now you`re on.
Just remember you`ve been warned.
Enjoy it now, `cause this will last.
I`m the future, you`re his past.
WH:
This is a retake of my life.
I was his star for many nights.
Now the roles have changed,
And you`re the leading lady in his life.
WH and DC:
Lights, camera, now you`re on.
Just remember you`ve been warned.
WH: Enjoy it now.
DC: Enjoy just now.
WH: It won`t last.
DC: I know it will last.
WH and DC: Same script, different cast.
