about

HE'S NEVER LEAVING HER is a true to life soap opera. This melancholy joint is a ballad of the side chick who finally moves on. Check it out! Who knows, maybe you can relate.

Written by Shawndella and produced by Ty Juan Peavy

lyrics

HE'S NEVER LEAVING HER

spoken: he can’t be serious

You’ve got some nerve
saying I owe you an explanation
Boy what an inclination
What in the tarnation

You can’t be real right now
I see your wife with child
Never been worth my while
What you gotta say now
Thought I would wait around forever
Thought I would never move on
That’s not the way I thought
that things would turn out

But that was 3 years and 8 months ago
When you promised me that you were leaving
So what was I supposed to do
just be okay with Me, her and you?

You’ve got some nerve
saying I owe you an explanation
Boy what an inclination
What in the tarnation

You’re saying that you miss me
But you know this ain’t fair
Why won’t you let me be happy
You would if you ever cared

Thought I would wait around forever
Thought I would never move on
That’s not the way I thought
things would turn out

But that was 3 years and 8 months ago
When you promised me that you were leaving
So what was I supposed to do
sit around and wait for you
See that was 3 years and 8 months ago
When you Promised me that you were leaving
So what was I supposed to do
Just be okay with me, her and you

Don’t sleep in the same room
Said that you were gonna leave her soon
Promised me that you were gonna end it
Just wanted baby girl to start school
now we’re 2 kids later
I’m looking at you
look at the paper
Never ever signed it
never filed it
What I’m supposed to do
Just wait around here

It’s been 3 years and 8 months ago
you’re crazy you know it
Promised me that you were leaving
So what was I supposed to do

That was 3 years- 8 months ago
Promised me that you were leaving
So what was I supposed to do
Just Be okay with Me, her and you

But that was 3 years and 8 months ago
When you promised me that the we’re leaving
You gotta let me go
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

I gotta life that I gotta live
Hmmm

I’m gonna be happy
away from you

We talking
3 years and 8 months ago
since you promised me
that you were leaving
And what was I suppose to do
Sit here and wait for you
