Bishop Lamont , John Mayer - Gone (Live at the North Sea Jazz Festival, 2005) lyrics

Girl, I'm sorry that I went away
For forever and another day
But I'm back and I'm ready to find
If you're down to take another ride

In the begining you felt like we
Had it all figured out
You thought that not me
I was on another route
I thought we was just cool
You thought we were great
To me you were the home girl
You were thinkin soul mate
It went from being good fun
To me being the one
The argunemts all the time, forcing me to run
I couldn't face that, I couldn't be that
You told me you loved me
I would never say it back you held me down
You helped me keep my life straight
You sacrificed your last whenever
My bills were late helped me become a man
But I ain't understand
You went and fell in love
That wasn't in my plan
Couldn't live a lie, couldn't be your man
I was still a boy then
Couldn't fully comprehend
How to truly love, how to truly show it
Took us some time apart
But finally I know it

We've been through so much
Too much to all remember drama after drama
Because you're listening to your mama
She always in the business
Thats when it turned vicious
Begin another ending
Sitting up in the abortion clinic, admit it
You know we just wasn't ready
Car ride home you cried, my hands shaked
Trying to keep the wheel steady rain fallin'
Name callin' arguments turned to brawlin'
I would never hurt you you tried to hurt me
You attacked me with a kitchen knife
Like you wanna murder me
Ran and dialed 911, said it's an emergancy
Next thing I know I'm gettin cuffed by police
Back of the squad car
How did things get this far?
I had to run away
It'd just get worse if I stayed
I had no other choice, I had to move on
But lookin back I don't know if
I was right or wrong but even though I left
Our love was never ever gone

I was gone, and now I'm back again
And now u gotta friend
But he ain't nothin' girl

I'm gone
