|
Momma I'm sorry |
|
You know I never meant to hurt you, no. |
|
But I'm in love with the boy next door. |
|
Momma, please understand |
|
And momma I'm so sorry |
|
But I don't think that I can let hem go |
|
I'm in love with the boy next door |
|
[Verse 1: Candice Jones] |
|
Starring at your picture |
|
My vision is blur |
|
My eyes are feeling petit |
|
With every word. |
|
They're trying to tell me |
|
I'm only a kid and that I |
|
Can't be in love |
|
I don't know what it is. |
|
And they keep trying to confince me that you ain't no good for me |
|
(You're to young to know, baby, just let it go.) |
|
And they just won't accept what we are |
|
And what we can be |
|
(So this letter reads) |
|
Momma, please understand. |
|
[Chorus: Ne-Yo] |
|
Momma I'm sorry |
|
You know I never meant to hurt you, no. |
|
But I'm in love with the boy next door. |
|
Momma, please understand |
|
And momma I'm so sorry |
|
But I don't think that I can let hem go |
|
I'm in love with the boy next door |
|
[Verse 2: Candice Jones] |
|
And I know that she |
|
Thinks that I'm young and naive |
|
Don't know what's good for me |
|
Think of your future |
|
She says with tears in her eyes |
|
(Don't throw away your dreams) |
|
About loving some guy. |
|
Momma please have more faith in me |
|
You didn't raise a fool |
|
I'm gonna stay by ya said though I know you don't want me to |
|
So this letter reads. |
|
Momma, please understand |
|
[Chorus: Ne-Yo] |
|
Momma I'm sorry |
|
You know I never meant to hurt you, no. |
|
But I'm in love with the boy next door. |
|
Momma, please understand |
|
And momma I'm so sorry |
|
But I don't think that I can let hem go |
|
I'm in love with the boy next door |
|
[Verse 3: Ne-Yo] |
|
Nothing I can say to |
|
Make you feel the way you feel |
|
But finally I found the love |
|
That I know is real, really real |
|
And I ain't gonna give it up |
|
Not for nothing |
|
I ain't gonna give it up (noo) |
|
So momma won't you please understand the way I feel, |
|
Please understand! |
|
[Chorus: Ne-Yo] |
|
Momma I'm sorry |
|
You know I never meant to hurt you, no. |
|
But I'm in love with the boy next door. |
|
Momma, please understand |
|
And momma I'm so sorry |
|
But I don't think that I can let hem go |
|
I'm in love with the boy next door |
