Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What now?
After you dumped me like you did, yeah
Already, I'm stringing along, yeah
Like I'm infatuated
[Verse 2]
You obliged to do me wrong
With no explanation
There's never any love or conversation
So after holding in my feelings
And fighting off my tears
[Verse 3]
What now?
What now?
What now?
[Verse 4]
Ooh, I tried
Making my life so complete with you, yeah
But it seems there's no value
To what's become
Become true to you
[Verse 5]
I tried
Yes, I did
But I can't take it too much longer
Because I'd be hurt and bit of dirt
Ooh, makes you stronger
[Verse 6]
So after holding, holding in my tears
And fighting off my fears
What now?
What now?
What now?
[Verse 7]
What now?
What now?
What now?
What now?
[Verse 8]
What now, what now my love?
What now, my love?
What now, my love?
[Verse 9]
What now?
Ooh, sugar, sugar
What now?
What now?
What now? What now?
What now? What now?
[Verse 10]
What now?
What now?
What now?
Baby, what now?
Ooh, what now?
Ooh, what now?
What now?
Ooh, what now?
What now?
What now?
What now? What now? What now?
What now, now, now?
What now?
Whoo!
What now?
