Album: Kelly Rowland - Ms. Kelly (2007) - Music World Music/Columbia

Love, walking takes so long
When you're alone
This time don't it & love
You had a hand to hold, but it just wasn't warm enough
But now, cause the same shoulder that was so cold
Now, needs one to lean on
Same number that was so hard to call
Is your favorite one
Same door you hated to walk in
Now you was what you wish was home
Same Mama who told you I was no good
Got to tell you


Chorus:
Love, it's a cold, cold world out there
And when it rains it pours, I swear
And that Big Sea don't look so pretty, no more
I hate to be the one, love
Lover...


Love, for 2 seconds, I actually feel bad for you
That your time is up
Love, the worst is that the world ain't been so bad to me
I've had better love
Cause the same chicks, that held your attention
Turned out to be just chickens
Same ex, who was your back-up plan
Moved on to a better plan
Same friends who told you to leave
Have all tried to get at me
Same Mama, who told you I was no good
Forgot to tell you

Chorus:...

[Talking] And you know, love....

The grass ain't greener, I swear on the other side
I hate to see you, I swear, on the other side
I hate to leave you. I swear, on the other side
I knew you had to go to see for yourself
I knew you would return, once you saw the real deal
The girls out here are a different breed
I know how you feel, stay there, in this cold, cold world to live

Chorus:...

I hate to be the one, love
But love,I thank you for showing me the world
Don't turn, because of you
Love feels so good, now that someones out the storm
I'm so glad, we're cool, & I'm sorry
