Can't You See

(album: The Truth About Love - 2006)

Since back in the day
We've been close friends
You would call on me telling me your problems
I'd been feeling things, things i never said
When you said that you were in love
Wish it was me instead
I'd treat you like an angel
He treats you like a fool
When you were hurting baby, i was broken too
And i can't go on
I need you baby

[Chorus]
Tired of being the shoulder you lean on
Wanna be the one you hold on to
More than just a friend
Let me be your everything
Wish i knew the way to make you
See that i've fallen in love with you
Can't you see i love you baby

If i sit you down, tell you what i'm going through
Will you leave him?
Will it be too much for you?
Don't wanna be an addition
To your situation
I never wanna be a complication
But if i see you cry
I'm stepping in
I can't keep watching you get your heart broken

[Chorus]

I ain't never said that i loved you
More than the friend that put nothin above you
And i could be more than the shoulder you lean on
I could be your king little lady, you'd be gettin your queen on
It hurt me everytime i seen him hurt you
Thinkin 'bout these feelins got me runnin in circles
(I can't go on this way)
I love your mind, body and soul, and even your perfume

[Chorus x2]

Whenever you're down, a mess
I will be there baby
I will lift you up when
When there's trouble girl
Look over your shoulders honey
When there's (trouble)
You can count on me
