It's Been Real

(Never say never)
 Baby, I hope we can still be friends
 And I really hate to see this affair come to an end
 But I don't know, it sho' was fun
 Just seems I'm not the one
 I have always hated goodbye
 There's no escaping the tears that fall from my eyes
 Every time you're in love you say forever
 Forever isn't long, so never say never
 It sure didn't take too long
 For everything right to go wrong
 Women all over the world asked me to write this song
 Just a little something to sing when the love is gone
 It's been real
 
 But the emptiness, I can't conceal
 It's been real, yeah
 And I hope you have a heart to understand just how I feel
 (It's been real)
 That's the whole deal
 Sho' been real
 It's not because we did not try
 Something just doesn't click between you and I
 You keep straining to keep it together
 Steady falling apart, not getting any better
 It sure grew cold, fast
 Only a season, did it last
 No it's not another man, or a greener grass
 I just want more from life than flash and cash
 It's been real
 Yeah, the emptiness, I no longer can conceal
 It's been real
 I hope you find it in your heart to understand just how I feel
 (It's been real), yeah
 That's the whole deal
 Sho' been real
 Maybe we got together, for all the wrong reasons
 You should be with someone cuz you want 'em
 Not just cuz you need 'em
 And we're older now, I guess we better face the music
 Love is for all, not forever you might lose it
 It's been real
 I hope you have enough love in your heart
 To understand just how I feel, yeah
 Sho' been real, yeah
 That's The Whole deal
 Sho' been real
 Maybe you could stop by some time
 When you just have some time to kill
 It's been real
 I just don't see us staying together
 Things ain't getting no better
 'Sho been real
