Beyonce Knowles - NAUGHTY GIRL (REMIX) FEAT. LIL FLIP lyrics

Washed out in the stillness of the night

She’s left searching

Once again love’s promise has been broken

And he ignores indifferently to the rhythm of her breathing

As she lights a cigarette and waits for morning

Light years apart - they lie both together

Like a child caught playing with matches

She’s been burned again by fire

And she knows she’s been betrayed by her own imagination

The cigarette keeps burning as she curses her desire.

Chorus:

And she thinks

She’s the only one who’s lonely

And she wants the world to feel sorry

And she’s trapped

Within her own self pity

And she asks: will anybody love me.

And on the radio an old song sings

Suggesting that love is why we’re living

As she turns the station fast.

She looks down at her lover

A friend of a friend of a stranger

As if his mouth might breathe an answer

And she knows she’s getting older

The emptiness controls her

And the smoke curls round her fingertips

Like question marks in time

The sun plays with the windows

As the man wakes up beside her

Silences are awkward as he reaches for his clothes

And as he leaves

She feels suspendedinvaded and rejected

The cigarette is ended

That’s how her story goes

Repeat chorus

And on the radio a new song sings

Suggesting that love is why we’re living

Ironically she laughs

As she turns the station fast

She’s given up on giving

Washed out in the stillness of the night

She’s left searching
