"Gotta Go Solo" lyrics - PATTI LABELLE

Raindrops on my window seal
Its quiet as a mouse in here
You're somewhere with the girls doing nails
Dinners takeout, no home-cooking all year
Aint no use pretending (no,no)
'Cause perfect I know I have not been
But theres gotta be a way to work things out
20 years, should remove all doubt

[Ronald Isley:] If you love me,(i love you) then how could you go
[Patti Labelle:] It's not about the love, its just I've had enough maybe we need to let it go
[Ronald Isley:] If you ever loved me,(i love you baby) then how could you leave
[Patti Labelle:] some songs have gotta end,we're better off as friend maybe its time I go solo

[Patti Labelle:]
I know this is confusing to you
But its been coming for a mighty long time
A woman needs to be loved
Enter too body, soul, and mind
You've been taking me for granted
No surprises, no flowers on rainy days

Now I can keep u just the way you are
But I know some things will never change

[Ronald:] if you love me(i love you baby)then how could you go
[Patti:] its not about the love its just ive had enough maybe we need to let it go
[Ronald:] if you lever loved me(i love you baby) then how could you leave
[Patti:] some songs have gotta end we're better off as friends maybe its time I go solo solo solo

[Patti Labelle:] I can't sing this melody no more, I've sung it for so long
[Ronald Isley:] Is it the verse, the chorus, or the bridge.(i odnt know)just tell me exactly what it is
[Patti Labelle:] I don't know While we're over troubled waters, I think the show is over

[Ronald:] if you love me (i still love you baby) then how could you go
[Patti:] its not about the love its just ive had enough maybe we need to let it go
[Ronald:] if you ever loved me then how could you leave
[Patti:] some songs have gotta end we're better off as friends mrs.pattis gotta go solo... solo

[Patti & Ron talk till fade]
