You know, if you`re not going to listen to me, Then there`s no need for us to talk. (Why, oh why did you do it) I`m being a friend by telling you this, Wait, wait, I know there`s nothing I could say, Or could do to go back, But honestly I tried. I tried to stay away from him, But you just kept bringing him `round. (You were sleeping with my baby) And I don`t know, something about his eyes, I`m sorry. (Why, oh why did you do it) I tried to block him out of my mind, (I thought you was a friend) But it just wouldn`t go away. So if you`re gonna phone anybody, (I`ma phone you) I think I`m the person you wanna talk to. (Why oh why) You can talk to me, (I can`t talk) We share the same ideas. (I can`t talk to you) We share the same love for the same man, (No we don`t, you`ve been creepin` with my man) And all I can say is, I tried. (You ain`t tried, you ain`t tried) May the best woman win (I will win, `cause I`m the best thing for him)
