Lyrics
Just a few nights of passion
Thought it would be lastin'
Never realizing one action
Can cause such a reaction
This isn't what I signed on for
This isn't what you or I had in store
What we had in mind
What we planned with our time
This was supposed to be quick
A sometimes answer not a permanent fix
And now treats have turned into tricks
Leaving us with a baby in the mix oh oh
I can't say I blame you
But you damn sure can't blame me
I just want simplicity
One plus one equaling three
How can this be?
Us making babies doesn't make us friends
You taught me that lesson time and time again
‘Cause when the lust stops and the passion ends
Consequences and repercussions they begin
Now we have to start all over
Getting to know one another
Why didn't we do this from the start?
Intriguing how we interpret our parts
In this master plan
Woman we were gonna be breezy and
Now you’re serious
Tell me girl what's the fuss?
What do you mean you didn't know about us?
Please don't tell me that I'm wrong
For wanting what we had all along
For wanting things to go back to the way
Before we got the news about the birthday
Now I'm tired of all the confusion
Trust me I'm under no delusion
Now you want no part of me
Left me girl in the cold
How did this come to be?
Us making babies doesn't make us friends
You taught me that lesson time and time again
‘Cause when the lust stops and the passion ends
Consequences and repercussions they begin
Oh oh I guess we can't turn back the hands of time
Still stuck in the past when everything was fine
I wish that I could sit back and rewind
A thousand times
Play it over in my mind
How did we get to where we are?
We were so close but then we fell so far
We’re better off apart
Dealing with the consequences of the heart
Us making babies doesn't make us friends
You taught me that lesson time and time again
‘Cause when the lust stops and the passion ends
Consequences and repercussions they begin
Us making babies doesn't make us friends
You taught me that lesson time and time again
‘Cause when the lust stops and the passion ends
Consequences and repercussions they begin
Oh we used to be friends oh
There are always consequences
Consequences to an end
I don’t know where
Where I should begin?
Us making babies, us making babies
Doesn’t make us friends
