I Wrote This Song Lyrics



[Intro]

I can't believe he's gone 

Why'd you leave? 

Sometimes it hurts so bad 



[Verse I]

He's the kind of guy that runs the street 

But he treats me good 

And he makes his dough illegally 

That's how he's taking care of me 

And I respect 

The fact 

That he's chosen that life 

But it keeps me up late at night

And I just can't spend my time

Wondering where he's at

Is he okay 

Wanna be by his side 

But I commit a crime 

Bonny to his Clyde 

And I don't wanna live that way 



[Chorus]

I love my baby so 

But he's not here no more 

Hard for me to understand 

So I wrote him this song 

When I look him in his eyes 

Knew I couldn't change his mind 

So I wrote this melody 

And I'm saying sweet goodbye 



[Verse II]

Though he promised that he could never put me in harm's way 

That it is something that he can't control 

Cause the game 

Remains the same 

And now he says he wants out of it 

But he's in too deep

And the only way that he would go is killing him or leaving me 

So this is where I'm at 

And it hurts so bad 

That I had to choose 

If I wanna live or die with you 

I love my baby so 

But he's not here no more 

Hard for me to understand 

So I wrote him this song 

When I looked him in his eyes 

Knew I couldn't change his mind 

So I wrote him this melody 

I'm singing sweet goodbye 



[Chorus:]



[Bridge:]

I tried to give him hope 

And promised him my life 

But I don't know what made him want to leave this life 

And as he went away 

A tear fell from my eye 

And there'no turning back...there's only goodbye 



[Chorus:]

I love my baby so 

But he's not here no more 

Hard for me to understand 

So I wrote him this song 

When I looked him in his eyes 

Knew I couldn't change his mind 

So I wrote him this melody 

I'm singing sweet goodbye 



[Repeat Chorus]
