Play This Song

Original

Play this song by yourself

And your friends don't talk about it

About your suffering in your silence

Boy, I know you miss me

(Listen by yourself, you can listen by your damn self)

And I can't pretend to hold it all in

It all comes around again

You know we got some history

(Listen by yourself, please listen by your damn self)

Play this song by yourself

There's a thing in my mind

I can't block this time

Ain't no way around it

I told Pookie, DeShawn, and Ron

We were getting back together

Although I highly doubt it

And I know you miss me, babe

Don't pretend like you don't feel the same

Can't take all the pain and the sorrow

Come on and stay until tomorrow

And I know you miss me, babe

Ain't it hard when things don't go your way?

I'm not the same, baby, I promise

All I can say is that I'm sorry

Play this song by yourself

Though you try so hard to hide it

I can tell by the way you're smiling

Girl, I know you miss me

(Listen by yourself, you can listen by your damn self)

At the drive-in eatin' with your little friend

I used to buy you steaks and scrimps

Don't act like you don't miss me

(Listen by yourself, please listen by your damn self)

Play this song by yourself

There's a place in my heart

I can't hide at all

Boy, you can always find it

I told Keisha, Chante, and Tots

We were getting back together

Although I highly doubt it

And I know you miss me, babe

Don't pretend like you don't feel the same

Can't take all the pain and the sorrow

Come on and stay until tomorrow

And I know you miss me, babe

Ain't it hard when things don't go your way?

I'm not the same, baby, I promise

All I can say is that I'm sorry

Play this song by yourself

And when you're sittin' all alone

And the DJ plays this song

You begin to realize you was dead wrong

It's time to bring it on home

You know you was lost in confusion

But it's never too late

To change things

Rearrange things
