Gerald Levert Lyrics

See I can't live with you
And I can't live without you
One minute I trust you
The next minute I doubt you
One day you're my soul mate
So I don't have to see you
But I know that I need you
We done broke up and got back together
A 100 times, think we're both outta our minds
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
How can two people love each other
Then turn around and hate one another?
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
See you can't live with me
And you can't live without me
One day you lovin' me
The next day you talkin' 'bout me
So your meddlin' girlfriends
Got your business all in the streets
Tellin' them you wanna leave me
But you know, know that you need me
We done broke up and got back together
A 100 times, think we're both outta our minds
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
How can two people love each other
Then turn around and hate one another?
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
We done broke up and got back together
A 100 times, think we're both outta our minds
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
How can two people love each other
Then turn around and hate one another?
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
How can we get past all our fears?
There's gotta be a better way
If we're gonna see better days
We done broke up and got back together
A 100 times, think we're both outta our minds
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
How can two people love each other
Then turn around and hate one another?
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
We done broke up and got back together
A 100 times, think we're both outta our minds
Tell me girl where do we go from here?
How can two people love each other
Then turn around and hate one another?
Tell me girl, where do we go from here?
