Got somebody whos, real down and cool
And when I need comfort, she always comes through
Like the time that I, was caught up with my ex girl
She let me stay at her crib and we got closer
I never, thought I, would ever, hit her off
And now I'm sitting right back where I started (where I started)
Now I'm asking why,
When you got a girl, gotta keep one on the side
When you know that I probably ain't gone wanna die
Girl I can't explain now right back, right back, right back, right back
Saying damn, I'm asking why can't I be a better man
This is something I later just won't understand
Girl I can't explain why I'm right back, right back, right back where I started from.
It's been about three years now I'm wondering
If I get up and leave she won't understand
Cause I don't know how long I can take being here
Girl oh oh oh, it's hurting me more than it's hurting you
To know that I've been stepping up and doing her
When you and I don't even know why
Now I'm asking why,
When you got a girl, gotta keep one on the side
When you know that I probably ain't gone wanna die
Girl I can't explain now right back, right back, right back, right back
Saying damn, I'm asking why can't I be a better man
This is something I later just won't understand
Girl I can't explain why I'm right back, right back, right back where I started from.
I hear my heart singing, oh oooh
Now this ain't where I need to be and deep inside it's killing me
I'm right back where I started from and I don't know why (I don't know why x3)
Now I'm asking why,
When you got a girl, gotta keep one on the side
When you know that I probably ain't gone wanna die
Girl I can't explain now right back, right back, right back, right back
Saying damn, I'm asking why can't I be a better man
This is something I later just won't understand
Girl I can't explain why I'm right back, right back, right back where I started from.
