[He wasn't man enough]
[Spanish guitar]
Just be a man about it
[Dr. Dre]
Hey, hey hold up a minute
Let me stop up here and use this pay phnoe real quick
Hey, hey Toni, it's me, I was just calling ya know
Just calling to let you know, don't wait up for me tonight
I mean I just got a lot of things on my mind
I gotta think about, you know
Just umm, I'll be over Brian's house
You know, just for tonight
I mean, I know things are different, but you know
It's not you, it's me, you know, it's really me, you know
And basically, I just think I'ma need some space
[Toni Braxton]
Why you calling me on the phone
Why you're not at home on time
You say you're staying over your friends
Cause you've got a lot on your mind
Now you're swearing up and down that it ain't me
So you say that things have changed
So tell me what exactly does it mean
When you say you need your space
Just don't make no excuses, no no
[Chorus]
Just be a man about it
(Baby, you ain't gotta lie to me, darling)
Just be a man about it
(If you wanna leave go on now)
Just be a man about it
(Come and grab your things and go on right now)
Just be a man about it
[Dr. Dre]
I mean, you gotta understand I love you
You know what I'm saying
And I love you enough to say that I think
I think you deserve somebody better than me, you know
And right now, I can't give you what you need, you know
I mean, I wanna love you and I'm gonna love you
One day but you know...
I mean, you just gotta understand where I'm coming from
[Toni Braxton]
You say right now that you're not what I'm looking for
And what you really need is time to grow
You're promising that one day you may come around
And I'm supposed to let that go
But where the hell do you get off
Telling me your mama said I'm not what you need
Tell you what, since she knows it all
Then that's where you need to be
Just don't make no excuses, no no
[Chorus]
[Toni Braxton]
Can you tell me how
You can say you're in love
And then treat me so bad
Boy, you know it just ain't right
I cannot believe the way you handled things
You want to lie
If you were a man...
[Chorus] 2x
He wasn't man enough
Darkchild, oh yeah
Toni Braxton, oh
Ha-ha, uh-huh
Yeah, uh, uh
Darkchild yeah
Listen girl
Who do you think I am?
Don’t you know that he was my man?
But I chose to let him go
So why do you act like I still care about him?
Looking at me like I’m hurt
When I’m the one who said I didn’t want it to work
Don’t you forget I had him first?
1 – What you thinkin’?
Stop playing me
He wasn’t man enough for me
If you don’t know now here’s chance
I’ve already had your man
Do you wonder just where he’s been, yeah?
Not be worried about him
Now it’s time you know the truth
I think he’s just the man for you
2 - What are you thinking?
Do you know about us back them?
Do you know about your husband, girlfriend?
I’m not thinking ‘bout him
But you married him
Do you know I made him leave?
Do you know he begged to stay with me?
He wasn’t man enough for me
Listen girl
Didn’t he tell you the truth?
If not then why don’t you ask him?
The maybe you can be more into him
Instead of worrying about me
And hopefully you won’t find
All the reasons why his love didn’t count
And why we couldn’t work it out
Repeat 1
Repeat 2 (2x)
Oh yeah
So many reasons why are love is through, yeah
What makes you think he’ll be good to you, no
It makes no sense cause he will never change
Girl you better recognize the game, oh yeah
What are you thinking?
Do you know about us back them?
Do you know about your husband, girlfriend?
I’m not thinking ‘bout him
But you married him
You know I made him leave
And you know he begged to stay with me
He wasn’t man enough for me
Repeat 2 till end
Spanish guitar
A smoky room, a small café
They come to hear you play
And drink and dance the night away
I sit out in the crowd
And close my eyes
Dream you're mine
But you don't know
You don't even know that I am there
I wish that I was in your arms
Like that Spanish guitar
And you would play me through the night
'Till the dawn
I wish you'd hold me in your arms
Like that Spanish guitar
All night long, all night long
I'd be your song, I'd be your song
Steal my heart with every note you play
I pray you'll look my way
And hold me to your heart someday
I long to be the one that you caress with tenderness
And you don't know
You don't even know that I exist
I wish that I was in your arms
Like that Spanish guitar
And you would play me through the night
'Till the dawn
I wish you'd hold me in your arms
Like that Spanish guitar
All night long, all night long
I'd be your song, I'd be your song
Te sientas entre la gente
Cierras tu ojos
Y suenas que soy tuyo
Pero yo no siquiera se que estas ahi
Me gustaria tenerte entre mis brazos amor
I sit out in the crowd
And close my eyes
Dream you're mine
And you don't know
You don't even know that I exist
I wish that I was in your arms
Like that Spanish guitar
And you would play me through the night
'Till the dawn
I wish you'd hold me in your arms
Like that Spanish guitar
All night long, all night long
I'd be your song, I'd be your song
