Stranded, stranded I'm so stranded
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh baby
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
It's over and done now
And now I'm sitting here, thinking that I made the mistake of my life babe
And after having the worse fight, we ever had I said I wanna move on baby
For so many days you were only tryin' to love me, I was so immature baby
So many girls, I was getting attention
But I'm grown now, and all this spending time
That I didn't wanna do is cos I didn't wanna settle down
But my soul reach, a heart that I was killing that's not all I could think about
Now, I was wrong baby when I have the chance baby,
And I ran away the closest thing to me Girl, I'm stranded
Girl, I'm stranded
All that we had is gone and I'm sad baby
What am I gone do now
Girl, I'm stranded
All that we had is gone and I'm sad baby
What am I gone do now Listen
None of those, calls that I would receive
When you use to pleed for me asking who was she
Have stopped coming in, but girl I don't even want
Somebody touching me when the chemistry ain't even you and me
Cos sex with no emotion ain't nothin' to talk about
I'm at the point that I'm looking for riddance baby
Cos mama use to tell me when a good thing comes around
Boy, you better seize the moment baby cos nothing
Is promised tomorrow Girl, I'm stranded
Girl, I'm stranded
All that we had is gone and I'm sad baby
What am I gone do now
Girl, I'm stranded
All that we had is gone and I'm sad baby
What am I gone do now
Baby if I was to change
(if I was to change) I'd follow my ways girl
Will you come back (to me, to me)
Bring your loving back to me
Loving and all that I'll miss
In the two months, three weeks girl
Can't take nobody kissin' you and doin' all the things I use to do girl
Girl, I'm stranded (all that we had is gone)
All that we had is gone and I'm sad baby
What am I gone do now
Girl, I'm stranded (so stranded)
(I can't live without you baby)
All that we had is gone and I'm sad baby
(what am I gone do now )
What am I gone do now
Eh, said I'm stranded
I knew you were gone when I saw your keys on the counter

Is promised tomorrow Girl, I'm stranded
Reiterating that I am stuck in this heartbreak and need you back in my life
Baby if I was to change
Reflecting that if I could go back and do things differently, I would
(if I was to change) I'd follow my ways girl
Promising to change and do things right if given another chance
Will you come back (to me, to me)
Pleading with you to come back to me
Bring your loving back to me
Asking for your affection and love once again
Loving and all that I'll miss
Expressing how much I long for your love and all that comes with it
In the two months, three weeks girl
Counting the time that has passed since we've been apart and how long it feels
Can't take nobody kissin' you and doin' all the things I use to do girl
Expressing how painful it is to see someone else doing the things that I used to do with you
Eh, said I'm stranded
Reiterating that I am stuck in this situation of heartbreak and need you back in my life
I knew you were gone when I saw your keys on the counter
Realizing that you were gone and feeling the weight of my mistake
