[Verse 1]
Since you let it all fall through
You sent love letters, you called too
Wish you could buy it back
You say money talks and speaks volumes
And I hear it
Get lost in the moment
It's the little things that do it for a girl
Then I give in
Then you say that it's over
Back to the beginning
[Chorus]
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
[Verse 2]
Saw you leave the door open
When you walked away, I was hoping
Maybe cry for a day or two
Then get back to where I was going
Then you come back and you sweep up
The mess you made and we re-up
Get high on love, like one more time
Somehow I feel I was cheated
[Chorus]
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
[Verse 3]
Now the ball is in my court
I make my moves, I play my sport
Then you come back, I don't fall for it
I shut that shit down (shut that shit down)
I go out on the weekend
Find a new boy, you start creeping
He treat me like a secret, and I fall back in the deep end
[Refrain]
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
[Chorus]
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
[Verse 4]
It's good days and it's bad days
But if I'm making my own waves
That’s my whip, and that’s my place
I forget about the games you play
When I close my eyes my heart's still looking for ya
Somewhere inside I miss the rollercoaster
How we be going...
[Refrain]
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
We go up, we down, we 'round and around
[Chorus]
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
Oh, why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so complicated, oh?
[Outro]
Why you gotta be so
Why you gotta be so
Why you gotta be so-oh
Why you gotta be so complicated?
Why you gotta be so
Why you gotta be so
Why you gotta be so-oh
Why you gotta be so complicated?
