Green Eyes Lyrics

Artist: Erykah Badu
Album: Mama's Gun

Movement I (Denial)

My eyes are green
Cuz I eats a lot of vegetables
it don't have nothing to do
with your new friend

My eyes are green
Cuz I eats a lot of vegetables
it don't have nothing to do
with your new friend

I don't care, I swear
I'm too through with you
I am
You don't mean nothing
to me
So go ahead and be with your
friend

My eyes are green
Cuz I eats a lot of vegetables
it don't have nothing to do
with your new friend

I'm insecure
but I can't help it
My mind says move on
my heart lags behind
But I don't love you anymore
I'm so insecure
Never knew love did this
ooh ooh ooh

I can't remember the last
time I felt this way
about somebody
you've done something to my mind
and I can't control it
But I don't love you any more
yes I do I think
loving you is wrong
do do

ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh oooh

la di dah lah di dah dah
dum dum dumm did di dum

Movement II (Acceptance)

I'm so confused
you tried to trick me yeah.....

oooh wooo wooo ooh woo

Never knew that love could hurt like this
Never thought I would but I got dissed
Makes me feel so sad and hurt inside
feel embarrassed so I want to hide
Silly me I thought your love was true
Changed my name to silly E-Badu
Before I heal it's gonna be awhile
i know it's gonna be awhile child

La di la di di di di
La di di di la di di

hope it's not too late
too late too late to late to

feeling insecure, love has got me sore, I don't want no more
do doop

Movement III (Relapse)

It's too late oh

ooh oooh oohh

I'm sorry
I love you
At first we was cool
You told me you loved me too
ooh
and then you lost your love
oh when you lost your love
and then you lost your love
wanted me to go away but I can't
no see
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late

just make love to me
just one more time
and then you'll see
I can't believe I made a desperate plea...
what's with me, meee mee yeah

yeah oh oooh
see
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
don't you know
I can't leave, its too late
can't go no where, no, it's too late
too late
too late
too late
c'mon
don't you wanna be strong with me
you told me we had a family
wanna run to mama when you're down and low
but when times get tough
and there you go
ooh out the door you wanna run again
open my arms and you come in
wanna run cuz you said that you were afraid
were afraid, no
Never knew what a friendship was
Never knew how to really love
You can't be what I need you to
and I don't know why I fucked with you

I know our love will never be the same
and I can't stand these growing pains
