Weep, Why When I Saw It Coming

Weep, Why? I Saw It Coming! He put me in the mood Reminding me I am a woman Phenomenally Phenomenal woman But is that really me? No need to explain why I can't see Distracted on all sides He liked the span of my thighs The curl in my hair Not so much the clothes I wear It was the look in my eyes The energy shared between he and I Forgetting that Woodoo That they do to attack you Yet never affecting you Because you said I do So I pause Not giving cause Committed Able to resist it Knowing something is wrong but I'm too strong Not sure what it is I want him, strange and new My GI Joe, my reason not to be blue I knew I was the assignment The joke is on who The joke is on me Because I wanted it to be Wanting his love Reservation free A little white lie won't hurt nobody This was my clue But why tell me truth Or should I say half of it Like sharing a goal Never to get old What can I say, it wasn't meant to be My soul wants to weep but my spirit says why? I saw it coming, you should have listened to me!
