Aretha Franklin Lyrics

"Don't Waste Your Time" lyrics


(feat. Mary J. Blige)
(Denise Rich, Josh Ruben)

(Mary:)
Lately I've got this funny feeling
Something don't feel the same
But he's telling me I'm the one to blame
Yes I know that he still gives me good loving
But when he's deep inside
There's somebody else on his mind

(Chorus:)
(Aretha:) Don't waste your time
(Mary:) But it gets so hard to know
(Aretha:) Just walk away
(Mary:) You say that I gotta let go
(Both:) Seen it a millions times before
(Aretha:) You shouldn't take his stuff no more
(Mary:) Can't waste my time
(Aretha:) Girl, it's not hard to know
(Mary:) Should walk away
(Aretha:) Oh, you've gotta let him go
(Both:) Seen it a millions times before
(Mary:) Shouldn't take his ish no more

(Aretha:)
Sister girl, sister girl
It's much deeper than what you're thinking
When something don't feel the same
Hey you better believe his love has change
(And I have been telling you, telling you)
And what you're telling me
(Cuz it's been hurting me, hurting me)
It ain't, ain't any fool can see
He's got a sweetie on the side
Stop making truth out of his lies

(Chorus)

(Aretha & Mary:)
What's the point of love
When you got no trust
What's the point of staying
When you seen enough
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve

(Mary:)
He don't deserve it
No you don't deserve it

(Aretha:)
Oh what's the point of feeling

(Aretha & Mary:)
Like there's nothing inside
What's the point of saying
That you still got your pride
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve
This is a lesson of love

(Chorus until fade)
