I Wrote This Song Lyrics - After The Storm - Monica

Verse 1: 

He's the kind of guy 

that runs the streets 

But he treats me good 

and he makes his dough illegally 

That's how he's taking care of me 

and I respect the fact that 

He's chosen that life 

but it keeps me up late at night 

And I just can't spend my time 

wondering where he's at, is he okay? 

I wanna be by his side 

but I commit a crime 

I need to decide 

if I don't wanna live that way

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

Chorus: 

I love my baby so 

But he's not here no more 

But I need to understand 

So I wrote this song 

Couldn't look him in his eyes 

Knew I couldn't change his mind 

So I wrote this melody 

And I'm singing sweet goodbye 

Verse 2: 

Though he promised that he would never put me in harm's way 

That is something that he can't control 

The game remains the same 

Now he says he wants out of here 

But he's in too deep 

And the only way that he will go is killing him or leaving me 

So this is where I'm at and it hurts so bad 

That I had to chose if I wanna live, or die with you

Bridge: 

I tried to give him hope 

And promise him my life 

But I don't know what made him want to leave this life 

And as he went away 

The tears fell from my eyes 

And there's no turning back 

There's only goodbye

It's hard to imagine 

My life here without you 

Without you 

Without you
