Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Before you go, can we just talk a moment?
We shouldn't end it like this
Can you just chill for a while?
Put your bags down, just try to hear me out
Now I know that recently we've been fussin' and fightin'
And I know you're tired of me
But if you leave, this is how I'll be
Picture me
[Verse 2]
Picture me down and out
(Yeah) Lost without you
(Oh, yeah) Picture me broken hearted
And so lost and alone
[Verse 3]
You don't wanna go
As much as I want you to stay, yeah (as much as I want you to stay)
'Cause I built my whole life around ya
And I'm not just 'bout to let it all slip away
And what about the tears that we've shared?
All the things that we've said
Were they all just in vain?
Girl, if you bounce on me
What I used to be is just a memory
('Cause this is how I'll be)
[Verse 4]
Picture me (Oh, oh, oh) down and out
Lost without you (Baby)
Picture me (Oh) broken hearted
And so lost and alone (Yeah)
[Verse 5]
Aight, aight, aight, look
I know, I know that I **** up, alright?
And I'm sorry, I'm really sorry
I mean, but I got issues
You got issues, everybody got issues
We're human, ya mean?
So what you want me to do about that?
I mean, 'cause I can tell a bunch of lies
And make like everything's alright
But I know deep down inside
That I'll be deceivin' you and misleadin' you
And I don't want to, so can we just try
Try this one last time?
Let's give it one more chance
Before you say goodbye, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah
[Verse 6]
Picture me down and out
Lost without you
Picture me broken hearted (Yeah, yeah)
And so lost and alone
[Verse 7]
(Can you picture me, girl?)
Picture me down and out (Not wantin' to eat no more)
(Not wantin' to sleep no more)
Lost without you (Only wanna be with you)
Picture me broken hearted ('Cause, see, I need ya)
(I've got to have you, oh) And so lost and alone
[Verse 8]
Picture me down and out (Picture me, picture)
Lost without you
Picture me broken hearted
