lyrics
Give Me A Reason - Saba
I’ve been up all night just waiting for you
waiting for you to come back home
waiting for you to ring that phone
must be better where you’ve gone
I lie awake at night just praying for you
praying for you to finally see
all the good that you had in me
but you never see me
How do you think it feels to know
that you’re not coming home
Give me a reason not to go
Give me a sign, something to let me know
Give me a reason to stay
Give me a sign and watch me walk away
Watch me walk away
No matter how I try I can’t make no sense of
make no sense of the shit you do
when all I did just went lost on you
but my heart was true
And boy I’m tired as hell of begging for you
begging for you to speak the truth
when all your lies came undone there’s proof
you tried to play me for a fool
How do you think it feels to know
you’re not coming home
Give me a reason not to go
Give me a sign, something to let me know
Give me a reason to stay
Give me a sign and watch me walk away
No matter what you did, I’ll always love you
don’t matter if you deserve it
I know my heart’ll keep on breaking if I leave or if I stay
these years I went on waiting for you, I can’t wait another day
Give me a reason not to go
Give me a sign, something to let me know
Give me a reason to stay
Give me a sign and watch me walk away
Watch me walk away
Watch me walk away
