  • Mmh, mmh

    Oh, why can't we be best friends anymore?
    They say a friend ain't to be between a girl and a boy
    I don't know who said it or why they got to be so wrong

    Oh, why don't you call? Don't you care anymore?
    It's not fair, don't let 'em get you
    They took us both and now I got to fix you
    Well, I don't know how I'm gon' fix you
    They say, "Brittany, that's just the way it's got to be"
    But why so?

    Why?
    Is an awful lot of questions
    And I can't get me no answer
    I keep wondering on

    Oh, why can't you see that I'm not trying to be
    No kind of bother? No
    I'm just trying to say what's left between you and me
    And where we left it before they took it
    And you know they took it all
    And took off

    Oh, why, I had let them drive a wedge between us?
    Well I watched it and I didn't say nothing
    Now I'm crying in my sleep
    Now I'm saying, I'm praying
    To that sweet melody in my soul

    Why?
    Well, is an awful lot of questions, you knot it is, ooh
    And if I can't get me no answer
    I keep wondering on

    Ooh
    Ahh, mmh, mmh
    I wanna know who said it
    Well, who said that? Oh, Lord Writer/s: Brittany Amber Howard, Heath Allen Fogg, Steven William Johnson, Zachary Riley Cockrell
