How Did We Get Here
Melody Lewis
ãJuly 6, 2003
Verse 1
Now this is how it all began
We started out as childhood friends
When we grew up it turned to love
At least that?s what I thought it was

I thought I knew you well, but then again
You kept the deepest secrets locked within
There?s no end to the games you?ll play with me
It all comes down to your insecurities

Hook
How did we get here?
How did all the love just disappear?
Why?d you change your mind?
Always schemin?, cheatin?, fakin?, hatin? won?t you tell me how did we get here?

Verse 2
Now here we are it?s here and now
More complications ?cause we have a child
And yet you still don?t seem to see
For you to keep my trust I need your loyalty

We used to sit forever holding hands
Always hanging out together making plans
Now even when you?re with me you?re not here
You try to touch me but it feels so insincere

Hook
How did we get here?
How did all the love just disappear?
Why?d you change your mind?
Always schemin?, cheatin?, fakin?, hatin? won?t you tell me how did we get here?










Rap Verse

Whatever happened to the way it used to be?
I couldn?t get enough of you, you couldn?t get enough of me.
We said it was forever, me and you for life, no doubt.
Was it really real, or was we only playing house?

Got a house, a car, a kid and everything was good to go.
Now all of a sudden it?s the 3 - 6 - 0.

I?m tired of the game, tired of living with the fear
It?ll never be the same
Tell me how the hell did we get here?

Verse 3
Now tell me why?d you change your mind?
Such a senseless waste of so much time.
We could have had so much by now
But it?s impossible to reconcile.

I deserve much better, that?s for sure
I?m fed up and I can?t take it any more
I thought you were the only one for me
I wish it could go back the way it used to be

Tell me how did we get here?
How did all the love just disappear?
Why?d you change your mind?
Always schemin?, cheatin?, fakin?, hatin? tell me how the hell did we get here?

How did we get here?
How did all the love just disappear?
Why?d you change your mind?
Always schemin?, cheatin?, fakin?, hatin? won?t you tell me how did we get here?
