lyrics

Talk to Me

[Chorus]

Oh baby won’t you
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, baby talk
(You ain’t gotta look me in my eye, I know you lie)

Oh baby won’t you
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, baby talk
(You ain’t gotta look me in my eye, I know you lie)

[Verse 1]

How do you make things so complicated?
I asked you one question and you hesitated
Seems like you’re trying to cover your tracks
Recalling details like you don’t know the facts

You get mad at me as if I’m the one trippin’
Like I wasn’t home cooking meals in the kitchen
You were downtown at the club with a stripper
Now you don’t remember that night
Blame the liquor

I wouldn’t be so bold
You left your story untold like
How you keep a good girl waiting?
Don’t be surprised when she loses her patience

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]

I hate you for making me feel this way
But I love you for reasons I can’t explain
You can’t explain where you’ve been all day
Why I spend all my time with you on my mind

Why you asking all these questions?
That’s irrelevant
That’s what you say under pressure
And blame it on me instead

I wouldn’t be so bold
You left your story untold like
How you keep a good girl waiting?
Don’t be surprised when she loses her patience

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

Oh no, no, no don’t you try
Oh no, no, no not this time
How can you look in my eye
And say what you know is a lie

Oh no, no, no don’t you try
Oh no, no, no not this time
How can you look in my eye
And say what you know is a lie

[Chorus]

[Outro]

You ain’t gotta lie
Why you tryna lie?

Oh baby won’t you talk to me
