[Verse 1]
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
[Verse 2]
You're physically in this, but how could we tell?
If we was meant to be in bliss if you're not mentally as well?
This energy you're sending me is tricky as hell
Usually it's like a 50/50, we could take a L
Before we start things, at this point being apart brings
The feeling of somebody plucking at your heart strings
I know it probably shouldn't feel like this
But any other woman I see is in your likeness
It's from your cheekbones
To your lips, to your curves, to your deep moans
To that walk, to your words
Your love feelin' like a breakdown on the verge
First we on good terms, then you on my last nerves
Got my back just aching, my shoes is all tight
It's too complex when we choose to do it right
It's wrong, one minute you a soldier strong
Then you tryin' a route, talking about it's over and gone
[Verse 3]
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
[Verse 4]
When your boyfriend's in town, it's bound to be trouble, love
His name Black, and he known to be a lover of
Gettin' it on with my smoker's jacket on
Eyes racin' back and forth, listenin' to Chaka Khan
Tryin' to figure the cause why you always acting off
Like I'm slacking off, maybe our signal's gettin' crossed
For the case, love, you feel like you makin' a waste of
Your precious time you need to get a taste of
Some space to breathe, a moment as friends
We should've felt ourselves slippin' into it again
'Cause it's like off and on, on and off
Passion lost and found, found and lost
Clashin', askin' for nothing but understanding
Your hearts made of glass, use care when handlin'
Girl, all in all I never leave you stranded
'Cause my respect you commanded, you figure it out
[Verse 5]
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
[Verse 6]
I used to come into the party and stand around
'Cause I was kinda too shy to really get down
I used to play the corner and watch the scene
Deep down knowin' I wanted to find me a queen
And I could feel that in my stomach and up in my chest
Because I knew a lot of women, and some was fresh
But then I found you girl, and just like me
You had a heart that was yearning to be set free
Now listen, see you and me, we need to take the time
To erase any doubt that's inside your mind
It's not a mountain that I'm ever too tired to climb
And who's countin', but I know at least a thousand times
I let you know I'm here for you, care for you, and confide in you
Break bread, share with you, and provide for you
And that's full time, it's no nine to five with you
That's why I'm trying to work it out with you, it's gonna work
[Verse 7]
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
I've been wondering about the complexity
Of what we have here, shouldn't there be more?
Just can't see more
