Why Does She Stay Lyrics
Ne-Yo
Lyrics
Why does she stay, hmm
Why does she stay, hey, hmm
Why does she stay, hey, hmm
She hates that I dont do dishes
Even though I mess up the most
And she begs me all the time to help her
I know that I should but im lazy so I don't (Hmm yeah)
She's always considering my feelings
Thinkin of me before herself
Most of the time I'm so damn selfish
I dont even realize she treats me so well
She's so much better than me
I'm so unworthy of her
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay? Why?
She hates that we dont spend much time
We barely see each other at all
She dont even nag me 'bout always working
She just says I just wish every now and then that you'd call
And i dont know why she's still here
She could have any man that she wants
I step outside of myself
To see how much she loves me
And all the things that I should do for her that I just don't, just dont
And I realize
She's so much better than me (so much better)
Im so unworthy of her (so unworthy of her)
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay? Tell me why? why, why, why, why, why, why, why?
She's in love
She's in love
She's in love
And I dont understand
And I don't understand, no
She's in love
She's in love
She's in love
Gotta be a better man for her
So I take my time and do what I'm supposed to do
Because i just cant see my life without you
Why does she stay?
She's so much better than me
(So much bet- so much better)
I'm so unworthy of her
(So unworthy of her)
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay? Tell me why? why, why, why, why, why, why, why?
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
