This is a Smooth, Sexy R&B track, with a 90s feel to it. It talks on love, and how easy it is for us to be in DENIAL of our love life. Sometimes how we see our love life is NOT how it truly appears, because LOVE CAN BE BLIND. It is not unusual for us to hope, dream, or believe that the people we love still love us, still think about us, still want to be with us. You catch yourself wondering what they are doing, and if they miss you or still care enough to call you up to hear your voice. This song touches on that aspect of love. We ALL meet up with DENIAL one time, or the other, in our lives, but the hope is that we one day see things as they TRULY are, and find OUR true love!
lyrics
V1:
The jig is up, and the thrill is gone. Is this denial, or is this denial fading.
The jig is up, and the thrill is gone. Is this denial, or is this denial fading.
The winters hot, and the summers cold, since you been away, since you been away babe. The skies are dark and the sun is gone, but I still hope it. What did I do? Tell where did we go wrong.
Chorus:
Baby where you go? Why you leave me here alone? Sitting, waiting by the phone, wonder if you'll ever call. Please don't tell me that it's true, love don't live here anymore. Should I stay or should I go? If I ask don't tell me so.
Bridge:
Look me in my eyes (Ooo,Yea ,Yea ,Yea), say it's all a lie (Ooo, Yea ,Yea ,Yea). Can you say that you still don't want me too? (Ooo, Yea ,Yea).
Touch me all over my body yea (Ooo, Yea ,Yea ,Yea)you know I can't do without it yea (Ooo, Yea ,Yea ,Yea).
Say that what we had it's still here, were not through (Ooo, Yea ,Yea).
V2:
The jig is up, and the thrill is gone. Is this denial, or is this denial fading.
The jig is up, and the thrill is gone. Is this denial, or is this denial fading.
In your heart is where I belong, I need you to see it, need you to believe it, I can't let you go no. Can feel your touch, your heart is numb ooo baby. But I can still feel it. You know and I know it, you are the only one baby.
Chorus:
Baby where you go? Why you leave me here alone? Sitting, waiting by the phone, wonder if you'll ever call. Please don't tell me that it's true, love don't live here anymore. Should I stay or should I go? If I ask don't tell me so.
