Hey Girl (Original Rough)

Lyrics

[Chorus: John Legend] Hey girl, I love you so And it's so sad that we can't even talk, no, we can't even talk, no Hey girl, I'm so sad today And my life just drifted away, drifted away Can this be real girl? Can this be solved? Girl, have we drifted so far? That we can't even talk no more? [Verse 1: Estelle] Nah, listen, we can't talk no more, blood 'Cause you never ever really understood, blood My heart was open but you stepped right on it You never saw that I was up for being number one, but listen How long I know you? We kept in touch through college Never the type to give you brain, I'm givin' you knowledge We be like old school, I seen you fucking with some other birds Yep, I let you roll right through I move my soul to another home dude But you was calling me, telling me your problems And I was going through my own kind of problems See, but I lended it here, you took a piss like you ain't care Walk around like, "Yeah, I had that there" And now you're shocked when you see me Wishing we was cool to talk, wanting you to see me Whipping out your numbers to call me, come and see But you ain't real enough to see me I'm making it clear, B, listen [Chorus: John Legend] Hey girl, I love you so And it's so sad That we can't even talk no, we can't even talk no Hey girl, I'm so sad today And my life (Yeah-yeah) Just drifted away, drifted away Can this be real, girl? Can this be solved? (Oh, yeah-yeah) Girl, have we drifted so far? (Have we drifted so far?) That we can't even talk no more? (Oh, oh, oh) [Verse 2: Estelle] And nah, and all the time I was wondering what was wrong with me Because you left me a mess like I was bored silly I would've done anything to see you smile at me But all you did was treat me like a stepchild, really I could've done a lot of shady things in the slide Like cut your car tires, put a hit out on your life But, uh, somethin' said don't do it, somethin' said give him a chance Said love will go through it, so now I say in advance Please don't talk to me, please don't call my phone You have no idea how I'm feeling, so Let's keep it bygones, we ain't good for each other We're not friends and I regret that we was even lovers Uh-uh (Nah), so don't be shocked when you see me (Uh) Thinking that we're cool to talk, now I'm on the TV Calling up my mom and asking her if she seen me But you ain't real enough to see me I'm making it clear, B, listen [Chorus: John Legend] Hey girl, I love you so (Ohh-oh) And It's so sad That we can't even talk no, we can't even talk no Hey girl, I'm so sad today 'Cause my life just drifted away, drifted away Can this be real girl? Can this be solved? Girl, have we drifted so far? That we can't even talk no more? [Outro: John Legend] Hey girl, I miss you so Won't you come back, come back? I don't wanna let go, I don't wanna let go Hey girl, come on back today 'Cause my life's just driftin' away, driftin' away I just miss you baby, come back baby Ooh, come on home
