Now I'm Gone

Male - "Monica baby, I'm sorry

I know I was wrong

But I think we can work it out

Just look at me, just try to hear me out"

Monica - "Nah, you hear me out"

I gave you so much love

But you had to play with my affections

My heart was in your hands

But you had to play with all my feelings

You got your mack on, but now I'm gone

Cause I'd rather be all alone

Away from all these silly games, because

I gave you no reason why

But just said do your thing on the side

But now I'm gone

Cause it will never be the same

You were busy kicking it with your boys

Instead of taking care of your girl

But now I'm gone

Gone away from you

I thought I knew you well

But you ran away, didn't care about me

You told so many lies

So don't you run away

From this thing called reality

But I'm long gone, I got to go on

There's someone waiting for me

To love me honestly

I gave you no reason why

But just said do your thing on the side

But now I'm gone

Cause it will never be the same, hey

You were busy kicking it with your boys

Instead of taking care of your girl

But now I'm gone

I'm gone away from you, oh my boy, yeah

I gave you no reason why

Just said do your thing on the side

But now I'm gone, oh my boy

Cause it will never be the same, naw

You were busy kicking it with your boys

(You shoulda been taking care of your girl)

Instead of taking care of your girl

But now I'm gone

But now I'm gone, oh now I'm gone

Now I'm gon' from you

(Monica speaking)

You see, the things you did to me back then

I'm long gon' from it now

Baby I gotta go my own way

They say (they say)

That you never (miss a good thing)

Until it's gon' (Until it's gone away)

(Repeat chorus and ad libs until fade)
