  • You didn’t want it before,
    so why are you here waiting?
    I don’t understand why you
    think I am contemplating
    on ways for you to love again
    everything that your missin’,
    sayin’ a premonition’s
    got you a-changin’ your mind.
    Boy stop your reminiscin’,
    ‘cause I won’t play the fool again.
    Every day you’re gone
    every day I move on,
    ‘cause it is plain to see
    that you weren’t meant for me,
    ‘cause I…

    I ain’t got the time to lose
    on you
    on you, no.

    I ain’t got the time to lose
    on you
    on you, no.

    You didn’t need me before,
    so why are you here begging?
    Looks like you didn’t think of
    everything before letting
    me out of sight, ‘cause now you’re like,
    “can I come around,”
    say you’re missin’ the sound
    of my everyday.
    You can stay away
    ‘cause I…

    I ain’t got the time to lose
    on you
    on you, no.

    I ain’t got the time to lose
    on you
    on you, no.

    I ain’t got the time to lose
    on you
    on you, no.

    I ain’t got the time to lose
    on you
    on you, no. Writer/s: Madison McFerrin
