Don’t Let Me Get Started Lyrics

[Intro: Missy Elliott]
This one for ya broken hearts
Sittin' at home with ya broken hearts
Put this one, make ya lights come on
Feelin' all alone, got the blues, c'mon
You ain't gotta worry, Ima save the day
Write a little song to take ya pain away
You know how I do, it be A-Okay
Find anotha one, in fact find a betta one...

[Verse 1: Jazmine Sullivan]
Breaking up with you is a painful thing
I can't believe the way it went down, I thought it was love
And no one told me that feelings would ever change
(Don't let me get started)
It hurts me when I talk about it
(See how the tears runnin' down my face)
The time we lost could've been spent on better days
(I bet you miss my lovin')

[Chorus]
I know you miss my lovin'
My kisses and my hugs and...
The time we spent on fussin'
Should've been used for my lovin'
I know you miss my lovin'
My kisses and my hugs and...
The time we spent on fussin'
Should've been used for my lovin'
[Verse 2: Jazmine Sullivan]
Relationships are built on trust before you begin
But I believe a good love should never end
When I look in your eyes, I feel it still
(Don't let me get started)
Me, I sat and sat and thought about it
Beating myself up until I'm blue
If milk is spilled, why sit home and cry about it?
(I bet you miss my lovin')

[Chorus]
I know you miss my lovin'
My kisses and my hugs and...
The time we spent on fussin'
Should've been used for my lovin'
I know you miss my lovin'
My kisses and my hugs and...
The time we spent on fussin'
Should've been used for my lovin'

[Bridge]
Me and you used to be so love
Now look at us
All this time that we shared
Now my heart no longer cares
You and I, were apart
Can't make it work 'cause I lost your trust
Now I bet you're missin' me
[Chorus]
I know you miss my lovin'
My kisses and my hugs and...
The time we spent on fussin'
Should've been used for my lovin'
I know you miss my lovin'
My kisses and my hugs and...
The time we spent on fussin'
Should've been used for my lovin'
