You Can Make the Story Right - Chaka Khan

It’s five a.m. when you walk in

This is where your story begins

You say you’ve been out with the fellas

But the perfume tells me where you’ve been

Well I knew for sure, when you walked through the door

You had another lover

I read the signs, but I tried to hide

All the pain I felt inside

You can make the story right

I believe what you say though you tell me lies

You can make the story right

It’s a fact to me, but it’s fiction to you, oh…

Same old song, same old story

You keep telling me lies

You think I don’t mind that you’re unfaithful

But you never see the tears I cry

You’ve been letting me down, but I can’t give you up

I don’t wanna let you go

We’ve spent so much time, trying to make it right

I don’t wanna loose the love we have

(You can make the story right)

You can make the story right

(I believe what you say, though you tell me lies)

I believe what you tell me

(You can make the story right)

Oh, oh…

It’s a fact to me, but it’s fiction to you

You’ve been lettin' me down, but I can’t give you up

Don’t want another lover

We’ve spent so much time trying to make it right

I don’t wanna loose the love we had
