Hikari - Nujabes, Substantial

Substantial and Nujabes

Still doing this

Yeah

Sorry love

Sorry love

Sorry love

But it seems like it isn’t in the cards for us

Meeting you is a blessing see

But, sorry, sweetheart we can never be

The little things you do be impressin' me

Still, baby girl, we can never be

You only want one night of ecstasy

Thanks but no thanks it can never be

'Cause I got a wife at home that I’m blessed to keep

And to fool around with you would be the death of me

Can’t have the ingredients to the recipe

'Cause it isn’t fair to you nor fair to me

And more importantly

It sure isn’t fair to her

Guess we might’ve had chance before I married her

'Cause wifey is worth more than life to me

A soulmate

Who am I to control fate?

'Cause somebody like you is much more than cut buddy

But I can’t give you all the things that you want from me

So…

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

But it seems like it isn’t in the cards for us

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

But it seems like it isn’t in the cards for us

I know you think I’ll be the perfect man

But it seems like the most I have ever pleased

Sounds no better than my brotha man

Can’t run around like Mr. Lover Man

Tryin' to maintain

Spend the rest of life with the same dame

That’s right, uh

Found the right one

Sounds like fun

But I ain’t this and that

'Cause if I lose her slim chance I’ll get her back

This is real life

This ain’t cinemax

Tryin' get my little seats filled

People feelin' packed

On these hardwood floors

On this house we own

They get hot, we know

But it’s not for show

Not that anything’s the matter with you

But there’s no guarantee that I’m compatible with you

And I can’t make you into something you’re not

No need to look around for what I already got

So…

I ain’t tryin' to

Waste your time, boo

I know you’ve been stepped on

And been lied to

God bless the next man who’s lucky to find you

It’s hard to sever ties

But, baby, I got to

Uh, that’s the way it is

I know you don’t know what to think of this

And I’m really sorry that it came to this

Feels like an end Let’s break this

'Cause they say it’s easier that way

That’s passe

And it hurts like a bad date

And the pressure is enough to make a back break

But to lead you on would be mad fake

So do your thing, baby

I’ll do mine

Don’t worry 'bout me, girl

I’ll be fine

This is all my fault

I’m too kind

And a decent human being’s hard to find

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

But it seems like it isn’t in the cards for us

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

We can’t be, we won’t be

Sorry love

But it seems like it isn’t in the cards for us
