I hate to say it,
You were wrong.
I saw you coming from the start.
She made you think she was the one,
I always knew she'd break your heart.
So she was out with your boy, Dom.
On the floor in a slow grind.
You're asking me just what to do, boy,
I say you should lay it on the line.

Now, remember Jenny from back in school?
She said she'd meet you at the pond, boy.
Your first love, her first fool.
Somehow I knew she'd lead you on, yeah.
It hurts my heart to see your pain,
Looking in from the outside.
And now you're doing it all again, yeah,
Wake up boy and lay it on the line.

We've been friend for so long,
I'm hear for you whenever you call.
But now it's time, for you to speak your mind.

Ou baby, it's been so hard,
Holding back everything inside.
To be honest, I've been a little scared,
Of losing you, I can't lie.
And now I gotta let you know,
I've been feeling you all this time.
And now I'm ready to take a chance.
I'm going to lay it on the line.

We've been friends for so long,
I'm here for you whenever you call.
But now it's time for you to speak your mind.

Oh oh Baby, let me know,
If you've been feeling me all this time.
Are you ready to take a chance, boy?
Common and lay it on the line.

Said "Are you ready for love?"
I'm going to lay it on the line, baby.
Are you ready for real, real love?
Common and lay it on the line.
Are you feeling me like I've been feeling you boy?
Common and lay it...
Common and lay it...
You've got to lay it on the line, baby.
Common and lay it...
Common and lay it on line.
