Stuck In The Game
Black and Jay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm just sitting here, tryna
Forget bout all those years, and I
I can't take the thought of him
Alone with you (alone with you)
Its been a year or so, and you
Moved on and left me cold, and I
I wish that I could let you know
That I still got a thang for you

But you got another man
He says he loves you too
Baby girl I understand
This must be hard on you
And it gets so hard sometimes
To know just what to do
Stuck in the middle with you

You and I
Through it all
Sunny days
Through the storms
Still I know
That he can never love you like me
Girl I know he and you
Going new he messed it up with it all
No he can never love you like me
Can we go back again as lovers not as friends
Ccause I know
That he can never love you like me
Girl I've been there before
Time to close it up and go right on
But he can never love you like me

I was the one you can run into
When tears would fall from what he do
Who knew the friends would become lovers
Going crazy giving my all but getting halfa you
I'm not half the man so tell me what to do
Never gonna let you go
'cause you know our love is true

But you got another man
But he's not good for you
Baby girl I understand
But this ain't all on you
And it gets so hard some time
To know just what to do
Stuck in the middle with you

You and I
Through it all
Sunny days
Through the storm
Still I know
That he can never love you like me
Girl I know he and you
Going new he messed it up with it all
No he can never love you like me
Can we go back again as lovers not as friends
Cause I know
That he can never love you like me
Girl I've been there before
Time to close up and go right on
But he can never love you like me

I know
That you will never find another love like
Me and you can look but won't find another man like
Me and even though you might have separated from me
Gotta make a choice can't wait forever

You and I
Through it all
Sunny days
Through the storm
Still I know
That he can never love you like me
Girl I know he and you
Going new he messed it up with it all
No he can never love you like me
Can we go back again as lovers not as friends
Cause I know
That he can never love you like me
Girl I've been there before




Time to close up and go right on
But he can never love you like me
