Shanell – Boy Stop Playin
Shanell – Boy Stop Playin Lyrics:
[Verse 1:]
Doesn’t mean that much
That your rather lose us
Am I asking for too much
When I say I need your trust
Baby can’t you see
What were doing isn’t healthy
If we suppose to be what we need
Don’t let your pride get in between
[Pre-Hook:]
Why can’t you just let it go
Oh baby that’s all I’m asking
I see where we can go
Baby lets try
Why don’t you
Show me I need more
And whatever got us here fighting
Lets not make it so
So much harder than it has to be
[Hook:]
Aye I put my heart up on the line
Boy stop playin’
All I wanna do is love you
Lets not waste each other’s time
Act like you know your way
No one else can get it
[Repeat x2]
[Verse 2:]
So is it really bad enough
To give it up
Only to turn around and be hurt
You know there’s no way that I rather be
Then right here with you next to me
I know you know me better then that
Why doubt us
[Pre-Hook:]
Why can’t you just let it go
That’s all I’m asking
I see where we can go
Baby lets try
Why don’t you
Show me I need more
And whatever got us here fighting
Lets not make it so
So much harder than it has to be
[Hook:]
Aye I put my heart up on the line
Boy stop playin’
All I wanna do is love you
Lets not waste each other’s time
Act like you know your way
No one else can get it
[Repeat x2]
