Love was the egg, see

And it was born in a cloud with silver lining

Uh-huh

But it broke

I mean it hatched on the ground, so time flew right by me

And voilà

I know you thought your life was gon' be easy when you didn't call

You found out you were wrong

See, I know you thought your life was gon' be easy

You thought you had it all, but you found that you were wrong

See, maybe there was something wrong

And you weren't telling me, no (No)

See, see, maybe the laugh's on me (Joke's on me)

And life was telling me a joke

Well, they say, "If something's yours and you let it go

If it comes back to you, it was yours all along"

Well, I let you go, along with those lies from you

I wonder what else lies in you, or did the lies just eat it gone?

See, I know you thought your life was gon' be easy when you didn't call

You found out you were wrong

See, I know you thought your life was gon' be easy

You thought you had it all, but you found that you were wrong

See, maybe there was something wrong

And you weren't telling me, no (No)

See, see, maybe the laugh's on me (Joke's on me)

And life was telling me a joke, babe

Hold it now

Y'all there?

How you feel right now?

Yeah, me too

Hey, yeah

Oh, babe!

Hold it now

Y'all alright?

See

Do you remember what it's like to wake up in her love nest?

Get it, love nest

And now she's gone, gone, gone, gone

At which point, you realize life is but a joke

And the laugh's on you

It's funny, right?

Babe!
