Ooh, the word is you're leaving The word is you're gone Word is we're over and you're moving on And the more I hear about it I rest my case... They say you've got your reasons And all I got are rhymes Don't you know I heard it 'Bout a hundred thousand times And the more I think about it I rest my case... Everybody choosin' up their sides tonight Everybody sure who's wrong or right, yeah You can say what you want now To put me in my place But I swear that I ain't talkin' till we go face to face, yeah Darlin' till I hear it from you I rest my case... Everybody wonderin' what I'm gonna do Think I'll hang around here Just wait till you're through Yeah the more I think about it I rest my case... And I hear you're telling everyone You can't buy a thrill Why don't you just step this up and go for the kill Yeah the more I hear about it I rest my case... Everybody choosin' up their sides tonight Everybody sure who's wrong or right, yeah So you say what you want now To put me in my place But I swear that I ain't talkin' till we go face to face, yeah Darlin' till I hear it from you I rest my case... You can throw yourself on public opinion Hope somebody gonna hear your appeal If you're waiting for me to get down on my knees Darlin' I ain't cutting that deal...yeah Ooh, ooh I rest my case... Ooh, ooh I rest my case... Everybody choosin' up their sides tonight Everybody sure who's wrong or right, yeah So you say what you want now To put me in my place But I swear that I ain't talkin' till we go face to face, yeah Darlin' till I hear it from you I rest my case... Darlin' till I hear it from you I rest my case... Darlin', darlin' till I hear it from you I rest my case... (to fade)
