Not For Free

Da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da

Da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da

I gotta say I just can't go on this way
With no clue what to do or where to start
So take me by the hand
Won't you make understand
Won't you make up for that time we were apart

I sat there dreaming for so long
With no idea what was really goin' on
Now I know and one thing's for sure
That won't happen anymore

Yo it used to be sweet songs like da da da da da
Now I'm steppin' back, I'm like nah nah nah nah nah
Could this be love, or maybe I'm dreamin'
But why oh why aren't these feelings leaving
Its got me thinking that it's not for me
'Cause I'm window shopping and it's not for free
And its got to be Cupid's mistake
'Cause them arrows equate to nothing but heartache
At least in the past like a MoTown song
Welcome to my world ya'll can all sing along
But if this is wrong I don't wanna be right
'Cause there's something in my heart thats telling me it might
If love's a marathon show me where I start
Gotta make up for the misery and time we were apart
And they don't think its smart, Mad woman like Madea
So I'll holler, do call if you see her

I sat there dreaming for so long
With no idea what was really goin' on
Now I know and one thing's for sure
That won't happen anymore

Da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da

Da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da

There was a day when I threw my cares away
To chase a pretty face down the street
But times have changed and things are very strange
It seems like my heart just can't compete
With all those silly people who just can't seem to see
That thing they're calling love is not for free
And I bet that there's a girl out there
Who's pure and good and true and just and fair
Well I haven't met her yet and I'll probably lose that bet
'Cause they're not like that anymore

Well I said all those silly people
They just can't seem to see
That thing they're calling love is not for free
