[Verse 1:]
last year just fell from my eyes
Told myself that I wasn't going to cry no more
(you did what you did, it is what it is) And that's why I walked out the door.
Moved on with my life, but not really
Spend too much time wondering how could you
(you do this to us but we were in love) I guess I was thinking too much

[Bridge:]
I was thinking that I would always have your love
You never could care enough but you know I cant deny
I listen to you tell me your dreams
And your fears
I wipe your tears
I was there and this is why this is hurting me

[Chorus:]
Why her? Why her?
Did I get on your nervous? Did I give you too much that you couldn't handle my love?
Why her? Why her?
Tell me what she was worth, to make you put her first and deceive me.
You wanna come back but I gotta know (why her?)
Thought she was all that, Why you at my door?
Now look at you, look at us, what's all this for?
Hope you got the answers to my questions
Why her?

[Verse 2:]
This going to be the last time we say goodbye
Aint going to be no reruns of the same soul
(you did what you did, it is what it is) Baby if you would of told me
You weren't happy, you weren't satisfied
We could of worked it out
Baby we could of tried
(but you didn't say nothing) All of alone faken it in front of me. Why?

[Bridge:]
I was thinking that I would always have your love
You never could care enough but you know I cant deny
I listen to you tell me your dreams
And your fears
I wipe your tears
I was there and it hurts me

[Chorus:]
Why her? Why her?
Did I get on your nervous? Did I give you too much that you couldn't handle my love?
Why her? Why her?
Tell me what she was worth, to make you put her first and deceive me.
You wanna come back but I gotta know (why her?)
Thought she was all that, Why you at my door?
Now look at you, look at us, what's all this for?
Hope you got the answers to my questions
Why her?

Monica: talking
Now ladies, you know I speak from experience right?
I used to look at him and wonder why.
Why her?
know wa i'm sayin
But ladies, I learn not to worry about them living a happily eva after
Because that s*** just build on a lie
So it should of fall
Thats why I stand tall (baby, baby, baby)
I just looked at him and said this is why you

[Chorus:]
Why her? Why her?
Did I get on your nervous? Did I give you too much that you couldn't handle my love?
Why her? Why her?
Tell me what she was worth, to make you put her first and deceive me. why her?
The plasma screen and all the other side, why her?
But I promised you be back tonight
Now look at u, look at us, hope you have the answers to my questions
Why her?
