(Duel with Akon)

Akon:
(Konvict, konvict)
Akon and Whitney, yay

Whitney:
Oh yeah (oh yeah)
Did you ever wish (wish)
You could get back something (uh huh)
That you did in your past (yeah)
If it wasn't for me
I know what we had would definitely gonna last
I admit (I admit)
That we say some things (uh huh)
We don't mean when we're mad (yeah)
But I realize (yeah)
That I've been foolish
I never should have (yeah)
Turned my back

'Cause it's a cold world
When you are out there (uh huh) all alone (all alone)
So many times that I wanted to just pick up the phone (up the phone)
And tell you ooh baby baby I miss your lovin' so
I ain't holding back no more (yeah)
Your girl is coming home (yeah)

Chorus:
And I want you to love me
Like I never left
And I want you to hold me
Like I never left
And I want you to touch me
Like I never left
Come give me what I'm missing
Like I never left (yeah, yeah)

Akon:
Do you think (think)
We could pick up (uh huh)
Where we left off before the day (the day, yeah)
That I told you it was over
Packed my things and moved away (moved away)
'Cause I see (see)
That without you (uh huh)
My world is just an empty place (place)
Taking one step away (yeah)
From you feels like a million miles away (yeah)

'Cause it's a cold world
When you are out there (uh huh) all alone (all alone)
So many times I wanted to just pick up the phone (up the phone)
And tell you ooh baby baby I miss your lovin' so
But I ain't holding back no more (no)
'Cause your man is coming home (no)

Chorus

Whitney:
I had enough
I miss you bad
What I did
Leave in the past
Yes your girl is coming back
Like I never left (oh)

Akon:
Say back in the building
Back on the block
You and me together
We back on top
Kinda love we got
It just don't stop
Like I never left

Whitney:
I had enough
I miss you bad (I miss you bad)
What I did
Leave in the past (yeah)
Yes your girl is coming back
Like I never left (I'm coming back home, boy)

Akon:
Say back in the building

Whitney:
I'm coming back home, boy

Akon:
Back on the block
You and me together
We back on top

Whitney:
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Akon:
Kinda love we got
It just don't stop
Like I never left

Whitney:
Well

Chorus

Whitney:
And I want you to love me
Oh baby
Come love me
Come hold me
Come touch me
Come give me
Like I never left
I never left you baby

Oh baby
Come love me
Come hold me
Come touch me
Come give me
Like I never left
I never left you baby
