Musiq Soulchild — Bestfriend

[Verse 1: Musiq Soulchild] Nowadays I don't understand why My love doesn't love me like she used to before Now lately the sun just doesn't shine And my paradise is gone [Chorus 1: Musiq Soulchild] Cause most of the time (most of the time) We argue and fight (over things that doesn't really matter) Lord knows that I tried (lord knows that I tried) To give all my love (to her) So what should I do? [Chorus 2: Carol Riddick] You've got to understand it's all about give and take You can't be so demanding Things won't always go your way If you just give it time And think about her feelings Then things will work out fine Learn to make her your best friend [Verse 2: Musiq Soulchild] I hear what you saying, but my girl she's always complaining And blaming me for things I'll never do (uh) And I don't know what, what it is that I did that was so wrong To make her feel I'll ever be untrue to her [Chorus] [Bridge 1: Carol Riddick] See what you need to do is stop catching attitudes And just try to take the time to hear her out Stop being so defensive and try to be more attentive to Show her you respect what she's talkin 'bout Cause you know how us women can be (yes) And when we feel threatened we react instinctively (yeah) When our emotions have grown to its high We can tend to just let it control our lives [Bridge 2: Musiq Soulchild] Well all right I'll try, next time, I'll try a little tenderness Even make sure that I give her more complements Maybe I could practice on being more patient And compromise for my baby (yeah yeah) [Outro] x2 [together] If you want her in your life Then you got to be willing to try See it's worth the struggle Cause in the end she will always Be your best friend yeah
