    a lot of my friends make fun of me for liking this song because it’s not upbeat, but it’s deep tbh

      I recommend getting new friends if they are making fun of you for listening to Badu

    I tell my wife all the time....Listen...To...The....Lyrics. The artist is telling you something that is hidden in beautiful music. Every time I read lyrics I'm like...WOW!...so that's what this song is really about. Anyway.....this song and AD 2000....man!! This whole album (cd) is still awesome today. 👍

    My eyes are green
    'Cause I eat a lot of vegetables
    It don't have nothing to do
    With your new friend
    My eyes are green
    'Fause 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 through with you, I am
    And 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
    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 that 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
    That I can't control
    But I don't love you anymore
    Yes I do I think
    Loving you is wrong
    Is it?
    Ooh ooh ooh
    Ladida dumb de dada
    Dumb di de da de da
    Dumb de da de dumb de
    I'm so confused
    You tried to trick me yeah
    Ooh oh ooh
    Never knew that love could hurt like this
    Never thought I would but I got this
    Makes me feel so sad and hurt inside
    Feel embarrassed so I want to 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 chile
    Da de da dee dee da
    Da dee dee dee dee
    I hope it's not too late
    Too late too late too late
    Feelin' insecure
    Love has got me sore
    I don't want no more ooh
    Yeah it's too late oh ooh
    I'm sorry I love you
    It hurts me ooh
    You told me you loved me too
    Ooh then you lost your love
    Oh then you lost your love
    And then you lost your love, wanted me to go away
    But I can't sleep
    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?
    Me me yeah
    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
    Yeah I ain't goin' nowhere no
    It's too late too late
    Too late too late
    Come on babe
    Don't you want be strong with me
    You told me we had a family
    Want to run 'cause I weigh ya down
    But times get tough and there you go
    Out the door you want to run again
    Open my heart will you come back again?
    Want to run 'cause you say that you are afraid
    You're afraid oh
    Never knew what a friendship was
    Never knew how to breathe love
    You can't be what I need you to
    And I don't know why I fuck with you
    I know our love will never be the same
    But I can't stand these growin' pains
