Lyrics Patti LaBelle – Gotta Go Solo

Ronald Isley:
Raindrops on my window seal (well, well, well)
It’s quiet as a mouse in here (oh, oh, ooh)
You’re somewhere with the girls doing nails

Chorus 1:
Ronald Isley
If you love me, (I love you) then how could you go
Patti LaBelle
It’s not about the love, it’s 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 friends maybe it’s time I go solo

Patti LaBelle:
I know this is confusing to you (very, very, very)
But it’s been coming for a mighty long time (a mighty long time)
A woman needs to be loved
Head to toe
Body, soul, and mind
You’ve been taking me for granted (have I really?)
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

Chorus 2:
Ronald Isley

Bridge:
Patti LaBelle
I can’t sing this melody no more, I’ve sung it for so long
Ronald Isley
Is it the chorus, the verse, or the bridge.(I don’t know)just tell me exactly what it is
Patti LaBelle
Ron we’re over troubled waters I can just show it’s over

Chorus 3:
Ronald Isley
if you love me (oh, Ron I still love you baby) then how could you go
Patti LaBelle
Hew, it’s not about the love it’s just I’ve had enough maybe we need to let it go, let it go
Ronald Isley
if you ever loved me(Oh, Ron you know I love ya) then how could you leave
Patti LaBelle
some songs have gotta end we’re better off as friends Mrs. Patti’s gotta go solo… solo

Ronald Isley
If you ever loved me
Patti LaBelle
I love you baby, Ron I love you
Ronald Isley

You been Mr. Bigg

Now honey here’s Mrs. Bigg
Ronald Isley

Ronald Isley
Yeah
Guitar solo fades
