You Deserve
Nina Sky Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Knew tonight would be a rainy day
When you barely smiled, then you walked away
I could see the pain tears were from your eyes
Wishing you happy days, but you'll be alright

[Chorus]
You deserve so much more
A lovely man to care for you
You don't have to hurt no more
You need another man
Who adores you
Ain't no change
So don't be scared to walk away

Never see you smile when he comes around
Feeling fear inside and he scares you down
Keeps sleeping with her but keeping you near
Love you like a sister can't you see what's going on here

[Chorus]

Sitting here with you on my mind
Hoping you would see and take my advice
He's not for you, you need to let him go
Love ain't suppose to hurt
I'm tired of seeing you cry

Don't want to see you cry no more
Just want to see you strong
I hope you take your things and go
Listen to my song





[Chorus: x4]
