Lyrics
"Gonna Love Me"
Written, Arranged & Produced by Darryl S. Duncan
Verse 1:
There you go again, playing with my heart
You treat me any way you want to, you made loving you so hard
Somebody?s got your attention, while you?re pretending to be true
It?s been a long time coming, but now I know what to do
Chorus:
I?m gonna love me, for the first time
I?ve taken your stuff, for the last time
I thought about it, and made up my mind
I?m gonna love me, for the first time (repeat)
Verse 2:
No body?s ever loved you the way I do
Now you?re sharing part of you with someone new ? how could you
I know you think I?m gonna, hang around while you lay around all over town, [well I won?t]
It?s a brand new day, and here is where I walk away?.
Chorus:
Bridge:
I will not be defined by any man, and if that mean being all alone, I?ll do the best I can
I?ve given you the best of me, and now it?s time I live,
The love that I have left inside, I?m givin? it to myself?
Solo/Break/Vamp:
Vamp Vocal:
You?ve given me tears too many times, I?d rather be alone, so baby move on
You?ve given my love to someone else, it?s time for you to go, so baby move on.
(2 part harmony)
