Love Don't Make No Sense

(album: All That I Am - 1997)

[Verse 1]
I try to make the best of a bad situation
Always gave too much; You never gave in return
Never could convince you to meet your obligations
Guess it took me walking out before you could learn
[Bridge 1]
Now you wonder why I've changed
And if any love remains
You try to make it right with all your hugs and kisses
But you just can't understand
A man needs more from his woman
It's not just money but the honey that is minning
[Chorus]
If you ask if I still love you
Then I'd have to say I do
If you ask why am I leaving
I'd say what am I supposed to do
What's the point in holding on if you keep on doing wrong
[Bottom line:] LOVE DON'T MAKE NO SENSE
[Verse 2]
Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 while I'm working
Sunday to Sunday all day you're on your back
Day-in day-out I'm putting food on the table
You could at least have tried to clean up your act
[Bridge 2]
Well I've given you that chance
Now I'm making other plans
I'd be better off if I was on my own
So don't you try to change my mind
You're out of luck and out of time
So find some fool who's cool with that because I'm gone
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 3]
It's a shame, but I can't remember
The last time you held a job
It's up to me to pay the bills
Baby I work damn hard
You don't think of nothing else but what you need
YOU DON'T EXCEPT RESPONSIBILITY
[Repeat Chorus Twice]
[Breakdown]
If you ask if I still love you
Then I'd have to say I do
If you ask why am I leaving
I'd say what am I supposed to do
What's the point in holding on if you keep on doing wrong
What's the bottom line?
LOVE DON'T MAKE NO SENSE
...love don't make nooooooooooooooo sense baby
