[VERSE 1]

[WYCLEF:]

Excuse me, if you see me screaming

Deep in my mind, i'm only dreaming

cuz if i wake girl, and you're not by my side

i'd feel like half of me, is no longer alive

so please shorty, before you walk out that door

would you listen to my song



[CLAUDETTE:]

if only, i give you one last chance

with the devil, you can no longer dance

you got to be faithful, so we could be fruitful

build a family, and follow god faithfully

so just before i want to reply, i might listen to your song



[WYCLEF:]

ooh, before you walk out that door, listen



[CHORUS]

[WYCLEF:]

they say two wrongs don't make it right ((don't make it right))

So if i'm wrong i ain't trying to fight

I'm trying to have some dinner with some candlelight ((yeeahh))

lay up in the bed and make love all night

[CLAUDETTE:]

So papi I wont leave, maybe i'll just stay

you promise me that you'll do the same



[Wyclef ((Claudette)):]

((touch me like you never touch me))

yo if you give me the chance girl

((yeah baby))

I'm gonna show you



[VERSE 2]

[CLAUDETTE ((Wyclef)):]

I'm gonna say ((i understand))

that i forgive you

and i aint gonna forget

that you brought me ?? ((baby, baby, baby))



[WYCLEF:]

But i have grown

from a thug to a man

Build my castle with bricks

and no longer with sand

Oh Girl



[Claudette:]

And just, before I want to reply, baby

I might listen to your song



[Wyclef:]

Ooh, before you walk out that door, listen



[CHORUS 2]

[WYCLEF:]

So if i'm wrong i ain't trying to fight ((i don't wanna fight))

Can't see the sunshine no more

I'm so used to the pain that the
