__________by Di-Di

Damn, my head is swimmin' right now....

After several months, I decided to find you
I felt I needed to stop feeling so blue
Passing several attempts, I worked up my nerve
I just knew you would have some kind of reserve

After several rings, you answered the phone
I didn't use *67, so my cover was blown
When you picked up, all I could do was say "Hi"
Prayin', silently you wouldn't tell me goodbye

When the first call was over, I didn't know what to expect
So I just sat back in a chair, thinkin' I should reflect
I sat there for awhile, thinkin' about the past
Reminiscin' about the time I saw you last

We talk on the phone, but sometimes you cut me short
I'm askin' you questions, & your words sometime distort
Why are you talkin' to me like I'm a dude?
Did I say something wrong? Are you in a bad mood?

It took me a sec to figure what was goin' on
Then you felt the need to expand upon
You let me know you were in a new relationship
I'm thinkin', "Damn, why didn't I figure out this shit?"

Okay.....you got a girl....what does this allow for?
Is that gonna stop you from creepin' through my door?
I don't think so, you got an open invite
And it sure didn't stop shit from goin' down last night

Now, I don't even know what to say.......
I guess you moved on while I was away

I know I can't rekindle the flame
And come back and expect shit to be the same
I can't relive the times we used to fuck away
But that's the price that I just had to pay

I guess I shouldn't have left, but we'd broken up anyway
