[Verse 1]
Things went good but they could've been better
I'm an honest man and there's no need to lie
You was out the door but love ain't let you
You came back and gave it another try
I've made my mistakes, I've learned my lessons
From all the tears that fell down from your eyes
I'm gon keep it real, I can see why you're stressing
I can see you got a lot on your mind

[Pre-Chorus]
Girl I'm a changed man
And I'm willing to understand
It ain't always about me, communication is the key
I got to shut up and listen sometimes

[Chorus]
I got to be quiet and the rest will follow
I tell myself don't think too much and the rest will follow
No need to rush
Baby let's stay together
So I know

[Verse 2]
I was so dumb, yeah I should've been smarter
I'm ashamed of how I treated you
I should've known better not to hurt your feelings
I should've respected your opinion too
I should've listened to the preacher's sermon
Cos now I'm reaping what I've sowed
And all these roses don't mean nothing
When all you're holding all the thoughts, but I'm
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a changed man
And I'm willing to understand
It ain't always about me, communication is the key
I got to shut up and listen sometimes

[Chorus]
I got to be quiet and the rest will follow
I tell myself don't think too much and the rest will follow
No need to rush
Baby let's stay together
So I know

[Bridge]
Let's look forward, no turning back
I'm dedicated, no need to ask
I can't live, don't take my life
I know what I gotta do to make things right

[Chorus]
I got to be quiet and the rest will follow
I tell myself don't think too much and the rest will follow
No need to rush
Baby let's stay together
So I know
