Phyllis Hyman - It's Not About You (It's About Me) Lyrics






I can't take this confusion
In this love illusion
'Cause baby, what I need is true
You got me in the middle
I can't solve this riddle
So baby, it's goodbye to you

Late night phone calls, occasional passion
Talking too much, not enough action
Cancelled dates, half-hearted invitations
It take some time, but now I learn my lesson

It's not about you (it's not about you)
It's about me (it's about me)
I gotta go (I gotta go)
I need to be free (I need to be free)
Too many lies (too many lies)
Not enough love (not enough love)
Saying goodbye (saying goodbye)
'Cause I had enough ('cause I had enough)

I can't take this confusion
In this love illusion
'Cause baby, what I need is true
You got me in the middle
I can't solve this riddle
So baby, it's goodbye to you

For far so long, I was feeling hopeless
But now I'm through, so I'm giving you some notice
No, it ain't your fault, it's just your nature
But it's not my job to try and re-arrange you

It's not about you (it's not about you)
It's about me (it's about me)
I gotta go (I gotta go)
I need to be free (I need to be free)
Too many lies (too many lies)
Not enough love (not enough love)
Saying goodbye (saying goodbye)
'Cause I had enough ('cause I had enough)

I can't take this confusion
In this love illusion
'Cause baby, what I need is true
You got me in the middle
I can't solve this riddle
So baby, it's goodbye to you

Oh, it's goodbye, baby, it's goodbye...
Baby, yeah, yeah...
I don't need you no more
Your lies...
And I can leave (it's good)
I don't need to put up with this... stuff no more

I can't take this confusion
In this love illusion
'Cause baby, what I need is true
You got me in the middle
I can't solve this riddle
So baby, it's goodbye to you
[x2]

It's goodbye... oh...
All I'm asking is for the truth
Got me in the middle, I don't wanna solve it, no
Goodbye, so long, baby

I can't take this confusion
In this love illusion
'Cause baby, what I need is true
You got me in the middle
I can't solve this riddle
So baby, it's goodbye to you
...
