Thief In The Night(Album Version) - Susannah McCorkle

album: the story goes
(you were the one)
girl see me and you
we got something strong
(but even i can tell)
(when something’s going on)
you see my best friend
and you ain’t being straight
(you two been hanging out)
(while i been working late)
and last night when we all went out to the club
like it wasn’t enough
you and him flirting and stuff no
that’s when he took you aside
his hands all up on your thighs baby (baby)
i see everything clearer now
but now he’s gone and tripped the alarm
girl and i can see through his charm
so i know when i’m out making dough
he be calling you on the low
things you don’t expect from a friend
and that’s what i don’t understand
'cos you know what’s up
but he let me down
he can steal the keys to my range
credit cards and even my name
but when it comes to you girl it ain’t the same
'cos this causes way too much pain
thought he could keep it all out of sight
he was like a thief in the night
i’ve had enough and now you've forced me
to get a few things off my mind
'cos i can see right through your crying girl
you must think that i’m (blind oh)
and even though i don’t want to
i just can’t ignore the signs
and if you knew how much it hurts me
you wouldn’t try waste my time
girl that’s when you said
(of course i love you)
i don’t believe
(there’s no one but you)
hmm 'cos i know that you've used those words girl
a million times before
now i don’t know what i’m gonna do...ah yeah
never dealt with something quite like this before in my life
no no
now it weren’t supposed to be this way
you both disappointed me
noticed something was wrong
but it took me so long to see oh girl oh
oh yeah~
you know what’s up
oh yeah~no no no
no~
