Lyrics

[Intro – Spoken Word]
(Rhodes piano... soft guitar... warm bass...)
Girl...
Can we stop pretending we don't still love each other?
We done built too much together...
To let pride tear it all apart...
Come here...
Let's have one real conversation...
[Chorus]
I'm so tired of calling your name...
(Keysha...)
I'm so tired of playing these games...
Girl why you're always walking away...
When shit gets heavy you won't stay...
Let's work on us... (oh baby...)
Before we lose everything we made...
Let's work on us...
Don't let our forever fade...
*(Ad-libs: Stay with me... / Don't leave me... / We can fix this...)
[Verse 1 – Sung]
Every picture hanging on these walls tells our story
From the first little apartment to everything we built together, baby
I still remember dancing barefoot in the kitchen light
Laughing so hard we forgot what we were arguing about that night
Now every conversation ends before it begins
Two good hearts trapped underneath stubbornness and pride again
Love ain't supposed to feel like keeping score every day
Sometimes "I'm sorry" is stronger than walking away
Your side of the bed still smells like your perfume
Without your laughter this whole house feels like an empty room
I don't need perfect... I just need you
Let's stop trying to win... and start trying to make it through
*(Ad-libs: Oh baby... / Come back home... / I still believe...)
[Pre-Chorus]
We've survived storms bigger than this...
Why let one season erase forever?
Love don't quit...
People do...
*(Background Harmonies: Stay... stay... stay...)
[Chorus]
I'm so tired of calling your name...
(Keysha...)
I'm so tired of playing these games...
Girl why you're always walking away...
When shit gets heavy you won't stay...
Let's work on us...
Before we lose everything we made...
Let's work on us...
Don't let our forever fade...
[Verse 2 – Rap/Sing]
(Melodic rap)
Girl, I ain't saying I'm innocent, I made mistakes too
There were nights I should've sat down and talked instead of walking through
I know I let work and stress get the best of me
But losing you? That ain't the life that's meant for me
Remember when we'd ride with the windows rolled down?
Just chasing sunsets on the edge of town
Back then we didn't have much at all
But somehow we still felt ten feet tall
Now every text feels colder than before
And every silence cuts a little more
Let's stop letting yesterday steal today
Baby, meet me halfway...
(Sung)
Cause I'd rather fight for you...
Than spend forever missing you...
*(Ad-libs: Meet me halfway... / Girl don't go... / Oh yeah...)
[Bridge – Big Soul Build]
Take my hand...
Let's start over...
Not because we forgot the pain...
But because...
Our love...
Is bigger than the pain...
Let's rebuild the trust...
Let's rebuild the laughter...
Let's rebuild us...
(Layered Harmonies)
Us...
Us...
Let's work on us...
[Final Chorus – Bigger Vocals & Harmonies]
I'm so tired of calling your name...
(Keysha... come back baby...)
I'm so tired of playing these games...
Girl why you're always walking away...
When shit gets heavy you won't stay...
Let's work on us... (one more chance...)
Before we lose everything we made...
Let's work on us...
Don't let our forever fade...
*(Big Ad-libs: I still love you... / Come back home... / Don't give up on us... / Ohhhhh...)
[Outro – Spoken Word]
Baby...
Every relationship has storms...
But storms don't last forever...
If we can find our way back to each other...
One conversation...
One hug...
One kiss...
At a time...
Then maybe...
We'll remember why we fell in love in the first place...
(Soft guitar, piano, and harmonies fade out.)
