"Play This Song" lyrics
(feat. Anderson .Paak)
Play this song by yourself
And your friends don't talk about it
About your suffering in your silence
Boy, I know you miss me (Listen by yourself, you can listen by your damn self)
And I can't pretend to hold it all in
It all comes around again
You know we got some history (Listen by yourself, please listen by your damn self)
Play this song by yourself
There's a thing in my mind
I can't block this time
Ain't no way around it
I told Pookie, DeShawn, and Ron
We were getting back together
Although I highly doubt it
And I know you miss me, babe
Don't pretend like you don't feel the same
Can't take all the pain and the sorrow
Come on and stay until tomorrow
And I know you miss me, babe
Ain't it hard when things don't go your way?
I'm not the same, baby, I promise
All I can say is that I'm sorry
Play this song by yourself
Though you try so hard to hide it
I can tell by the way you're smiling
Girl, I know you miss me (Listen by yourself, you can listen by your damn self)
At the drive-in eatin' with your little friend
I used to buy you steaks and scrimps
Don't act like you don't miss me (Listen by yourself, please listen by your damn self)
Play this song by yourself
There's a place in my heart
I can't hide at all
Boy, you can always find it
I told Keisha, Chante, and Tots
We were getting back together
Although I highly doubt it
And I know you miss me, babe
Don't pretend like you don't feel the same
Can't take all the pain and the sorrow
Come on and stay until tomorrow
And I know you miss me, babe
Ain't it hard when things don't go your way?
I'm not the same, baby, I promise
All I can say is that I'm sorry
Play this song by yourself
And when you're sittin' all alone
And the DJ plays this song
You begin to realize you was dead wrong
It's time to bring it on home
You know you was lost in confusion
But it's never too late
To change things
Rearrange things
And your friends don't talk about it
About your suffering in your silence
Boy, I know you miss me (Listen by yourself, you can listen by your damn self)
And I can't pretend to hold it all in
It all comes around again
You know we got some history (Listen by yourself, please listen by your damn self)
Play this song by yourself
There's a thing in my mind
I can't block this time
Ain't no way around it
I told Pookie, DeShawn, and Ron
We were getting back together
Although I highly doubt it
And I know you miss me, babe
Don't pretend like you don't feel the same
Can't take all the pain and the sorrow
Come on and stay until tomorrow
And I know you miss me, babe
Ain't it hard when things don't go your way?
I'm not the same, baby, I promise
All I can say is that I'm sorry
Play this song by yourself
Though you try so hard to hide it
I can tell by the way you're smiling
Girl, I know you miss me (Listen by yourself, you can listen by your damn self)
At the drive-in eatin' with your little friend
I used to buy you steaks and scrimps
Don't act like you don't miss me (Listen by yourself, please listen by your damn self)
