no sweet talk
you will always be welcome
in our home as a friend
but that's where the story ends
you had nine years to know how you feel
so dont try to catch me now like a fish pulling in on a reel
you had every chance and every oppertunity too
so now it will always be friendship that i can offer you
no sweet talking
trying to win me over
that boat has already sailed
trying to sweet talk me
since your rent has become more dear
you chat about moving
no sweet talking
if you move home am sorry that it wont be here
am happy now being left on the shelf
am very independant
and with Gods help
i can take care of myself.
i work hard
then for my two adult children
i care for every day
now this is the way it will stay.
