When Your Well Runs Dry

i know you miss me

that's what they say about your water when your well runs dry

I've got you thirsty 

and all you can do ask is why, why, why?

 

but when a sistah knows she just know

and when its time to go shes gotta go

its now time for the after party

end of the show

 

so you can cry your crocodile tears

and reminisce through all the years

you never thought i'd ever leave

realizing one of your biggest fears

 

and though you may beg

and try to hold on tight

its now the twelfth round...knock out

the end of the fight

 

will i come back?

not even maybe

look in my face i'm for real

its all in the eyes baby
