Lyrics
RIPPED IT APART
(Words by Xsample & Nomi Yah, Music by Ryan Daisley)
(Chorus)
She broke my heart, she ripped it apart?
(Verse 1)
She has changed since the other day
She has changed since I went away
What can I do to make you stay, yeah?
Sorry is all she say
But sorry can?t buy soldier lorry
Nor make the pain go away
Yesterday, last night, today
Or New Year?s Day, yeah
(Chorus)
He broke my heart, he ripped it apart?
(Verse 2)
He has changed since the other day
He has changed since he went away
What can I do to make you stay, yeah?
You told me over and over that you check for me
Forever and ever that?s how it?d be
Well, starting over and over wasn?t my idea
I never even made a Plan B
But now you?re leaving me to fend for myself
I don?t know, I don?t know what I?ll do by myself
And now you?re leaving me just when I need help
Guess I?ll have to pray for myself
(Chorus)
She broke my heart, she ripped it apart?
(Verse 3)
I?ll go far away so you can?t find me den
I?ll do better than Tom Sawyer den you a go want me when
It?s too late, me already gone round the bend
You see me signing autographs and you hand me your pen
What about you and Tom Sawyer? You say he no want you again
You already been used and defiled, loose not tighten
I?m married and settled down, you heard and get frightened
What make it bad, Tom Sawyer a naw me enemy, him are me friend
(Chorus)
