But then walks through your mystery
So darling, you tell me it's a wild world
You gotta take a little pain and
How long till love…
…it rain, let it rain
Now you see that love's just a game
In his arms time goes so fast
But stolen love will never last
You try to keep him…
…though you know it's wrong
This kind of love can only last so long
So darling, you tell me it's a wild world
You gotta take…

…you need to put it back again
You shattered me, I can't explain
You call my name and then my heart stops beating
My heart stops…
…heart and let it glow
You capture me, I can't explain
You call my name and then my heart stops beating
Get your mind made up, hear…
…your car at 3am
You took your love, you need to put it back again
You shattered me, I can't explain
You call my name…

…away
CHORUS
Explain it to my heart
It's better that we're over now
Tell me one more time that this it's suppose to be
Tell me…
…that I'm better off without you
How it's better to forget about you
Darling I understand
Now won't you please explain it to my heart…
Say that I'll be better
If we don't stay together
Say that I'll be better off free
But don't say it to me
Explain it to my heart…

…see this great big love
It started to drive me crazy, I didn't think that It could be all the things you'd want
[Pre-Chorus…
…that I really loved you darling
Let me take it back and start again start again start again baby
[Verse 2]
Sometimes pride gets the best of me…
I should have shown you what we coulda been
I swear that I really loved you darling
Let me take it back and start again start again start again baby…

…used to have a dunk, I mean dunk it
I used to get high in her trees like a monkey
The dead me being, I ain't talking 'bout Harambe…
…you come from the jungle
The words don't always
Come out like you want 'em to
Hip Hop said to me
[Hook: Kyra De'nae]
Darling, you…
…this for the rest of my life, I'm gone
Protect your life, y'know what I mean
Oh, you don't know what that means? Let me explain it to…

…Darling, when you sit up and stare all night
I get the feeling that something ain't right
My heart starts to beat on my drum…
But I'll try my best
You know Honey I swear I will
Darling, you pretend to sleep but I know it's a lie
This bed is wet from…
…the tears you cry
I lie there frustrated, don't know what to do
Sometimes I can't get through to you
I know you can't explain what's…

…kill me if you walked away
But darling, my lies, they hide you from the pain
[Chorus]
Stay, let me explain why I act so mean
Don't…
…act like you act
To take someone easy and leave it at that
[Chorus]
Stay, let me explain why I act so mean
Don't look…
…heart will break
Stay, let me explain why I act so mean
Don't look away, baby, it's not all that it seems
I'm so afraid…

…[Intro]
Play a melody inside my heart and you will have it
I'll try to pull you in but fall apart, 'cause I can't work magic…
…explain it even if you understand
I'll try to paint it better
I hope you'll frame it, because I worked so hard and I won't…
But even if you see me, chances are I will just let you down
[Chorus]
Oh I'll explain it even if you understand
I'll try to…

…in the center ring,
And their lines don't mean a thing,
Why don't you let me try? (let me try)
I don't have a diamond ring
I don't even know…
…you with my charms
Darling, then you'll see, (you will see)
The things that I'm saying are true
And the way I'll explain them to…
…are true
And the way I explain it to you
Yes to you,
Listen to me,
La la la la la la la la la
Means I love you
La la la la la la la la la
Means I love you
(Repeat, etc.)…

And their lines don't mean a thing,
Why don't you let me try? (let me try)
