[Verse 1]
I wasn't gonna say it, mm-mm
That boy ain't worth your patience wearin' thin
The flowers never came in, future's only fadin'
Don't know why you're stayin', mm-mm

[Pre-Chorus]
Callin' me drunk
You say you want love
Well, baby, I got more than enough

[Chorus]
I've been holdin' my breath, holdin' out for you
I've been hopin' I'm next from across the room
I know better than to wait on a heartbreak
Pray for a mistake
Girl, if you need someone to put you first
Just say the word

[Post-Chorus]
The second you're leavin'
Whenever you need me, girl
You know that I'll be there
Call my name and say the word

[Verse 2]
Girl, I could be good to you, mm-mm
Love you like he should've done all along
I've been here on the sidelines
Bite my tongue on the goodbye
Wishin' one day you'll realize
[Chorus]
I've been holdin' my breath, holdin' out for you
I've been hopin' I'm next from across the room
I know better than to wait on a heartbreak
Pray for a mistake
Girl, if you need someone to put you first
Just say the word

[Post-Chorus]
The second you're leavin'
Whenever you need me, girl
You know that I'll be there
Call my name and say the word

[Outro]
Just say the word
Just say the word
Just say the word, oh
