1 Thing - Amerie

The postman delivered A "past due" bill notice The alarm clock rang two hours late The garbage man left all the trash On the sidewalk And the hinges fell off of the gate And this morning at breakfast I spilled all the coffee And I opened the door on my knee But the last thing I needed The first thing this morning Was to have you walk out on me Last night you came home late And I knew you'd been drinking By that old mellow look on your face I thought, "It don't matter Because it's the holiday season" And you fill such a big empty space But then I laid down beside you And I wanted your loving Because your love makes my life complete But the last thing I needed The first thing this morning Was to have you walk out on me So excuse me for looking Like my world just ended And excuse me for looking Like I just lost my best friend And excuse me for loving And being forgiving So just go on if you want to be free But the last thing I needed The first thing this morning Was to have you walk out on me But the last thing I needed The first thing this morning Was to have you walk out on me
