It was so beautiful
Remember how in love we were?
So in love, so in love, once
So in love, once
She was a young girl, I was a young man
And I knew they would get her when I let go her hand
And then I let go the inevitable
So beautiful and susceptible
So wonderful and so innocent
And after this neither one of us would benefit
Yeah, I was a dropout, she was a graduate
She said Iâll never be nothing, she wasnât having it
Yeah, I tried to break her down, I tried to reason it
She said I wasnât nobody to be believing in
Yeah, what a waste of time, what a waste of mind
Your place of mind was a part of the design
Yeah, I used to call her up, she never called back
Then when she called that said I wasnât all that
Yeah, I know that times change and people change too
I was a fool just to think that I could change you
Everyoneâs got stories gone about a love we once knew
So high in the beginning until the world cuts through
And then everything changes, nothing feels the same
Piece by piece it falls apart until all thatâs left is blame
And if I had a chance to do it all over
Iâd do it exactly the same
I was a b-boy, she was a good girl
Turned hot girl, had to be a hood girl
Never did she notice she would end up in a shook world
I was like, look girl, itâs all in the book
Yeah, I used to tell her jokes, I used to make her laugh
And if I had a whole dollar I would give her half
So delicate and so intelligent
And then she trying to play me out just for the hell of it
Back when she was 19 not even 21
Used to do a thing getting somebody anyone
Thought that she was naive or was it really me
I do believe she was the one that was fulfilling me
So we broke up at a barbecue
I drove home thinking never will I bother you
Yeah, I just didnât know what it was hidden for
She had me sitting low but she was bullshitting, though
Everyoneâs got stories gone about a love we once knew
So high in the beginning until the world cuts through
Everything changes, nothing feels the same
Piece by piece it falls apart until all thatâs left is blame
So I just kept rhyming, I caught her eye again
Next thing you know, she was hollering, letâs try again
But I wasnât buying in, didnât want to lie again
Love was in the frying pan, baby, itâs done
But she started hanging out and started being seen
Seeing things different, said she wasnât being mean
Yeah, if I let her in then I let her win
But Iâm a veteran, whatâs better than a friend
Maybe she was an angel but sheâs in disguise
And I just didnât see the God-light in her eyes
Or maybe I should I walk away and cut the ties
Stay on the rise, leave love left where love dies
We were youngsters but weâre older now
You know the world is a little more colder now
And Iâm just trying to get it all off my shoulder now
Baby, you can hold it down, Iâll see you in the wind
Everyoneâs got stories gone about a love we once knew
So high in the beginning until the world cuts through
And then everything changes, nothing feels the same
Piece by piece it falls apart until all thatâs left is blame
Thatâs right, baby, next life time
Yeah, ainât that what they say?
Check it out, love donât hate
I got love for you, always
