Loving Your Best Friend

Knock knock knock who's therewho's

Knock knock knock who's thereanybody

Knock knock knock who's therewho's

Who's therewho's therewho's therewho's there

If you're wondering while you're knocking

Why I ain't opening up

I'm loving your best friend

If you're wondering while you're knocking

Why I ain't opening up

I'm loving your best friend

If you wonder why I'm tripping

Started out when we stopped talking

Found myself in the corner off drinking

But the problem just won't go

I distract myself with music

But my ear drums just refused it

So I dig into my wallet

And I stare at your photo

When I think of all the time

Candlelight, dinner and wine

You're the rib that's in my spine

But you would not make no time

So your girlfriend came around

All those times that you left town

Made me feel just like a king

When she sat down on my crown

Now it might seem kind of shady

And it shoots like a 380

Though I'm in another lady

I'm still thinking 'bout my baby

All the things we used to do, when I used to call you Boo

It felt like we were in grade school

But all those days are through

All those thoughts of going to the chapel

It's like someone just burned my castle

Paint the picture like Picasso

But the image fades

Now for some it might sound deep

But I just received a beep

So I called back anxiously

She put her lover on the line

If you're wondering when you're calling

Why I ain't calling you back

She said I'm loving a new man (she said to me)

If you're wondering when you're calling

Why I ain't calling you back

She said I'm lovin' a new man

(She said that she had someone new)

If you're wondering when you're calling why I ain't calling you back

I'm loving a new man

Oohh oohhbaby please (baby please)

You know this situation's buggin' me (buggin' me)

You got someone else but your girl's with me (girl's with me)

It's only so I can get by

[Chorus]
