Mahalia - Hide Out Lyrics

Can anyone live with Eartha Kitt?
That's not for me to decide
That's for someone who decides to live with me to decide, not for me
But are you willing to compromise within a relationship?
Compromise? What is compromising? Compromising for what reason?
To compromise? For what!

You said all these things
You don't have to call me, you don't gotta say it
I already guessed, love
You been playin'
I don't need to know where you are now
I don't see no reason for a blowout
I was here the whole time, you were busy chasing
You don't know what you had, I'm amazing

I was all in and you was all out
I'll get back up after this fall-down
Look me in my eyes and tell me you never loved me, yeah
Babe, it's no surprise, if I was you I'd feel lucky, uh, uh

Yeah, you striked out
All the times, thought that I didn't know 'bout
All the lies you denied, but I know now
'Bout your hideout
I can't believe you thought I'd never find out, uh, uh, uh
Said all these things, oh yeah, mmm, uh, uh, uh
You said all these things, oh, uh, uh, uh

I ignored the rumors, that's my lesson
Clearly I'm your humor, you been messin'
Always talkin' 'bout the future when you not even present
I'm the prize, uh, I'm a blessing
I was cool to slow down, you were busy racing
Had it all figured out, you knew I'd cave in

I was all in and you were all out
I'll come back up after this comedown
Look me in my face and tell me this ain't bravado, uh
I let you set the pace, all I did was just follow, uh, uh

Yeah, you striked out
All the likes, thought that I didn't know 'bout
All the times you denied, but I know now
'Bout your hideout
I can't believe you thought I'd never find out, uh, uh, uh
You said all these things, oh, mmm, yeah, uh, uh, uh
You said all these things, oh, uh, uh, uh
