Perfect Crime Lyrics

I wish that I had you

I wish that I had you

(For some advice)

I've been asking up to God for some advice

How you move on when the love wasn't right

When I question all the choices that I've made

They got my heart up in a grave, what I'm doing with my life

I've been begging up to God for some forgiveness

Cause I ain't perfect, I know I be steady sinning

I've been begging up to God for some forgiveness

Now I'm driving round the town, wondering where we went wrong

Too much of the drama, it was hard to get along

Now I only see you when I'm writing down these songs

You was my biggest motivation, why you gotta do me wrong

Remember times was good, yeah not everything was bad

All the things we did, all the memories we had

Got me thinking to myself, reminiscing bout the past

We tried to take it slow, but it ended real fast

Cause when she broke my heart, it was the perfect crime

Was the perfect place, at the perfect time

It was the perfect way, should've seen the signs

But we just kept going, we was speeding by

And now we went our separate ways, but I still feel the connection

Now you saying that you hate me and I'm missing the affection

I don't want these other hoes that's in my section

Having you walk in my life was like a blessing

And I kept it real with you and I held it down

Remember you needed me, I need you now

You need me again, then I'll run across the town

The places you be, my heart follows you round

And I saw you with that boy when I was out the other day

I couldn't even face it, had to look the other way

How you do me like that, it's only been a week

Guess he got the things that you didn't see in me

The money, the cars, the looks and the fame

I see y'all moving quick and you're taking his name

I hope you get what you want in the end

We used to be lovers, now we ain't even friends

Now I'm driving round the town, wondering where we went wrong

Too much of the drama, it was hard to get along

Now I only see you when I'm writing down these songs

You was my biggest motivation, why you gotta do me wrong

Remember times was good, yeah not everything was bad

All the things we did, all the memories we had

Got me thinking to myself, reminiscing bout the past

We tried to take it slow, but it ended real fast

When the pace picked up, things got off track

We ain't fall in love, nah we fell in traps

Tried to make it out, but it held me back

Now I'm back alone, bout to jump the map

Maybe take myself to Cali, maybe Florida where it's at

With the palm trees by the ocean and I sit back and relax

And don't you worry bout it baby, I been

Keeping to myself, don't want nonsense

Tired of all the fake shit, I'm wanting something real

Tired of all those nights, drown emotions with the pills

I've been tired of this way I always feel

But it's been over a decade and I still never heal

I'm barely coping with this pain using drugs to cover up

Still wanna be the best, don't wanna be the runner up

But first I gotta win this fight

Alone in this room and I miss you tonight

Now I'm driving round the town, wondering where we went wrong

Too much of the drama, it was hard to get along

Now I only see you when I'm writing down these songs

You was my biggest motivation, why you gotta do me wrong

Remember times was good, yeah not everything was bad

All the things we did, all the memories we had

Got me thinking of myself, reminiscing bout the past

We tried to take it slow, but it ended real fast

On the other side

And with all this pain that I've been through

I wish that I had you

I wish that I had you

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Now I need you
