Complicated

(album: New Normal - 2019)

Heart on my sleeve, but it's ripped at the cuff
Another seamstress is stitching me up
Conjuring conjugal visits, is it enough?
Calling your phone, just hoping you call my bluff

That's the reason late in the evening that I be hitting you up
I understand that you got a man, don't wanna be splitting you up
But the naked truth, right in front of me, standing there in the buff
I swear it was right there, on the tip of my tongue
But instead I'm on the tip of yours, playing games and keeping score
Tell me when you're getting bored, gentleman, I'll get the door
Things get complicated when we get to conversating
It gets heated on occasion, we ain't here for no promise making, no

But on those nights I long for you
I know that I belong to you
And I don't wanna do no wrong to you
That's why I wrote this song for you

Why do we make it so complicated?
When it could all be so simple
Baby, I've seen you naked
Nothing could come between me and you
We make it so complicated
Knowing it could be so simple
Baby, I've seen
You naked

Nah-nah nah-nah nah-nah
Nah-nah nah-nah nah-nah
Nah-nah nah-nah nah-nah
Nah-nah nah-nah nah-nah, hey
And I just wanna say
That there is still time for you to walk away
But you've been running wild through my thoughts all day
Do you recognise when you call my name
I'ma call your name, won't you hear me now?

Why it gotta be complicated? Why is taking you out on a date
With me feeling so outdated?
Set a place for two at the table, both got our reservations
'Cause we can't separate the attachment
Or take the attraction from out the equation and that's the problem ain't it?
But if you tell me what you want from me
Then I'ma tell you what I want from you
Honesty the best policy when it come to monogamy
So we should get it understood before you get on top of me (Whoa)

But on those nights I long for you
I know that I belong to you
And I don't wanna do no wrong to you
That's why I wrote this song for you

Why do we make it so complicated?
When it could all be so simple
Baby, I've seen you naked
Nothing could come between me and you
We make it so complicated
Knowing it could be so simple
Baby, I've seen
You naked

Said, "Nothing could come between me and you"
You said, "Nothing could come between me and you"
