[Monica: ab-libbing]



[Verse 1:]

My last tear just fell from my eyes

Told myself that I wasn't going to cry no more

(you did what you did, it is what it is) and that's why I walked out the door.

Moved on with my life, but not really

Spent too much time wondering how could you

(you do this to us while we we're in love) I guess I was thinking too much



[Bridge:]

I was thinking that the sex had your love

You never could get enought cause I kept it hot

I listen to you tell me your dreams

And your fears

I wiped your tears

I was there and this is why this is hurting me



[Chorus:]

Why her? Why her?

Did I get on your nerves?

Did I give you too much that you couldn't handle my love?

Why her? Why her?

Tell me what she was worth it, to make you put her first and deceive me.

You wanna come back but I gotta know (why her?)

I thought she was all that? Then why you at my door?

(Now look at you, look at us, what's all this for?

Hope you got the answers to my questions)

Why her?



[Verse 2:]

This going to be the last time we say goodbye

Aint going to be no reruns of this episode

(you did what you did, it is what it is) Maybe if you would of told me

You weren't happy, you weren't satisfied

We could of worked it out

Maybe we could of tried

(but you didn't say nothing) All of alone fakin' it in front of me. Why?



[Bridge:]

I was thinking that the sex had your love

You never could care enough but you know I cant deny

I listen to you tell me your dreams

And your fears

I wiped your tears

I was there and it hurts me



[Chorus:]

Why her? Why her?

Did I get on your nerves?

Did I give you too much that you couldn't handle my love?

Why her? Why her?

Tell me what she was worth it, to make you put her first and deceive me.

You wanna come back but I gotta know (why her?)

I thought she was all that? Then why you at my door?

(Now look at you, look at us, what's all this for?

Hope you got the answers to my questions)

Why her?



[Monica: talking while ab-libbing in the background]



Now ladies, yall know I speak from experience right?

I used to look at him and wonder why.

Why her?

Yah know what I'm saying?

But ladies, I learn not to worry about them living a happily ever after

Because that shit just build on a lie

So it should of fall

That's why I stand tall (baby, baby, baby)

I just looked at him and said this is why you



[Chorus:]

Why her? Why her?

Did I get on your nerves?

Did I give you too much that you couldn't handle my love?

Why her? Why her?

Tell me what she was worth, to make you put her first and deceive me.

The grass looks greener on the other side

But I promise youll be back tonight

Now look at u, look at us, whats all thios for, hope u got the answer to my questions

Why her?
