Erykah Badu Lyrics
"Green Eyes"

(Up tempo)

My eyes are green
Cause I eat a lot vegetables
It don't have nothing to do with your new friend
My eyes are green
Cause I eat a lot of vegetables
It don't have nothing to do with your new friend

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

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

(Slow tempo)

I'm insecure
But I can't help it
My mind says move on
My heart lags behind it

But I don't love you anymore
I'm so insecure
Never knew that love did this

ohh ohh ohhh, ohh ohh ohhh

I can't remenber
The last time I felt this way
about somebody
You've done something to my mind
and I can't control

But I don't love you anymore
Yes I do, I think
Loving you is wrong
du ohh

ohhh ohhh ohhh, ohhh ohhh ohhh

I'm so confused
You tried to trick me, yeah

Ohhhhhh, ohhhhh, ohhhhh

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 wanna hide
Silly me I thought your love was true
Change my name to silly E Badu
Before I heal, it's gonna be a while
I know it's gonna be a while child

badi dadi di di,dadi di di dum dum di di di
I hope is not too late
Too late, too late, too late
feeling insecure
Love has got me sore
I don't want no more
du ohh

It's too late

I'm sorry
I love you
At first it was cool
You told me, you love me too
And then you lost your love
Oh then your love
And then you lost your love
You wanted me to go away, but I can't go

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 desparate plea
What's with me, me,me
yeeeeh ooh

You 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
It's too late
Can't go nowhere
It's too late
It's too late
too late
too late

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
Then times get tough and there you go
Ohh out the door you wanna run again
Open my arms and you'll come back in
Wanna run cause you say that you were afraid
Now your free...GO

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
But I can't stand these growing pains.
