Lalah Hathaway - Honestly

#LalahHathaway #Honestly #RnB Lalah Hathaway  - Honestly {Verse 1:} You used to be my heartbeat Your love was made for me I could not live without you You were my destiny Now that my eyes are open See how the tables turn And now I'm not so sure Call this a lesson learned {Chorus:} Honestly I don't really want you no more Honestly You can walk out that door Honestly I don't really want you no more Honestly You can walk out that door {Verse 2:} Thought this would last forever And never would we part So much for happy endings You never played your part Please close the door behind you No need to make a scene You can do what you want now And now I'll just do me {Chorus:} Honestly I don't even want you no more Honestly You can walk out that door Honestly I don't even want you no more Honestly So you can walk out that door Honestly Honestly Honestly I don't even want you no more Honestly So you can walk out that door
