The Paper - Deniece Williams

This time it’s over

This time there’ll be no coming back

All the paper needs

Is a signature from you and me

We now divide the things

We once share as a team

All the paper needs

Is a signature from you and me

You say you can’t understand

Why I must leave

You say you can’t understand

Why I’m displeased

You say that I should know

You did the best you could

You say you knew someday

That leave I would

Leave I would

Ba-di-ow

Ba-di-ow

Ba-di-ow

It seems so very strange

That we shall never love again

'Cause all the paper needs

Is a signature from you and me

We now go our separate ways

And loneliness’s the price to pay

'Cause all the paper needs

Is a signature from you and me

You say you can’t understand

Why I must leave

You say you can’t understand

Why I’m displeased

You say that I should know

You did the best you could

You say you knew someday

That leave I would

Leave I would

I said I’m leaving

Ba-di-ow

Ba-di-ow

Ba-di-ow
