What You Gonna Do
Why are you sitting by the phone
Looking out the window
Waiting for him to come home
Woman, why are you crying
Looking in his eyes
When you know he's lying
Said he was out all night with a friend
Said that he loved you
and he won't do it again
You lay down by his side
Fooling yourself saying he's got nothing to hide
He makes love to you with passion in his eyes
You can look in them and tell he's living a lie
He puts all his loving inside of you
He closes his eyes, like he always do
Cause that way you won't see the truth
That he's loving another instead of you
She's living in his head
He's making love to you
but thinking about her in your bed
Trying not to scream out her name
And you can feel it, it's a damn shame
He explodes inside of you
Don't look your way
rolls on his side like he always do
And your left feeling empty
and lonely inside
But you don't speak a word
You don't repeat what your eyes have heard
You start to cry
Because the truth is in his eyes
Woman what you gonna to do
When the truth is standing right in front of you
You can be a good wife
and live forever in his lies
Cook his dinner and raise his kids
Ignore that other woman like you always did
Calling your phone in the middle of the night
What's done in the dark will soon come to light
But my question to you
Woman, what you gonna do
You can be a good wife
and live forever in his lies
Let the years pass you by
With her by his side
Woman, what you gonna do
When all the memories catch up with you
And their living in your head
And you start to remember, all the things that he said
And they start to haunt you
As so many ghosts do
Woman, what you gonna do
With all these memories, inside of you
Will you be a good wife
and live forever in his lies
What you gonna do
When the truth is standing right in front of you
When she's having his baby
And he's standing in front of you
telling you she's his lady
And all the years you gave to him they are gone
And just like ten years ago
Your standing by that window all alone
I ask only one question of you
Woman
What you gonna do?
