Dont Wait Til She's Done

Mm, mm Mm Oh, yeah Mm

She don't need a perfect man, she needs a present one Someone who still sees her when the whole day's done She wanna speak her heart without defending every word Sometimes she don't need an answer, she just needs to know she's heard

Remember when you noticed every little thing she did How you couldn't pass her by without your hands around her hips Now she walks into the room, you barely lift your eyes And wonder where the woman went who used to lie there by your side

She told you she was lonely, you told her she complained She told you something changed, you turned around the blame Every time she reached for you and nothing reached her back She learned to need you less and less, you never noticed that

Don't wait 'til she's done to love her right Don't wait 'til she's gone to hold her tight Don't wait 'til the tears don't fall no more Then become what she was asking for When she stops asking where you've been (mm) Stops caring who got your attention You might think she finally trusts you Sometimes she just stopped expecting

Watch where you put your eyes when your woman's by your side Something small to you can cut somebody deep inside Don't call her insecure because she tells you what she sees She shouldn't stand beside her man and feel she gotta compete

Watch the way you speak to her whenever you get mad (yeah) You might forget by morning, she remembers what you said Don't point out every flaw like she don't own a mirror too She wants to feel desired by the man that she once chose

Love ain't only paying bills, love ain't coming home You can give her everything and still make her feel alone It's looking when she's talking, reaching when she needs your touch Making sure the woman giving everything ain't begging you for love

Don't wait 'til she's done to love her right Don't wait 'til she's gone to hold her tight Don't wait 'til the tears don't fall no more Then become what she was asking for When she stops asking where you've been (mm) Stops caring who got your attention You might think she finally trusts you Sometimes she just stopped expecting

Crying ain't always the ending Arguing ain't always goodbye, oh If she's still fighting to reach you There's still love somewhere inside

Worry when she gets quiet When she don't ask where you've been And sleeping alone feels better Than reaching for you again You might think you finally got peace No questions, no fighting at night Whole time she learned how to breathe Without needing you by her side

Don't wait 'til she's done to love her right Don't, don't wait 'til goodbye keeps you up at night Don't wait 'til the woman who begged for your time Finally gets tired and takes back her life (ooh) If she's still talking, listen (mm) If she's still reaching, reach (mm) If she tells you what she needs from you Don't make that woman beg to be seen

'Cause losing a good woman Ain't always her walking out that door Sometimes she's laying right beside you She just don't love you like she did before
