Neglection.

Seven days have passed...

...seven whole days

and still no word from you.

Was it something I did, something I said?? I don't understand it.

All I've every tried to do is get you to open up to me. Is that wrong? I'm over the games and I just want you to be honest with me. Is that much to ask for? I thought I was getting through to you. Was I mistaken? If so, please let me know where I stand, where we stand...please, before you go. I just need to know.

I'm tired of giving and giving and getting nothing in return. It hurts to want you the way I do, but if this is the way it has to be, than I rather let it be then continue to be your fool. But just do me one decent favor and tell me. Just talk to me.

Neglection.

To help reflect on this issue, let's listen to some good ol' Toni B. Now, she's been through it. "Seven Whole Days"

Seven Whole Days - Toni Braxton

Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
Im just about thru
I cant take it, wont take it
Cant take it no more
I had about enough of you

Id rather be on my own
Yes on my own

Darlin
Darlin
You know if you cared anything about love
You woulda been front and center
Lovin me and touchin me
Honey
Honey
You know if you knew anything about me
You woulda been much more tender
Ooh squeezin me, caressin me
You coulda had about anything you wanted
But you messed it up
You had to be tough
You told your friends
You had me wrapped around your finger
You were talking kinda cocky
Like you had it goin on
All the while you knew
That things were kinda shaky
You knew that you were wrong
Dead wrong to be
Mistreating me
How can we go on

Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
Im just about thru
I cant take it, wont take it
Cant take it no more
I had about enough of you

Id rather be on my own
Yes on my own

Sugar
Sugar
You know if you knew anything about sweet
You woulda been talkin to me
Everyday
Seven days a week
Baby
Baby
You shoulda been givin me
A little more time
But you were just much too busy
Abusin me and usin me
I woulda done about anything
Ya wanted
I was there for you
I was crazy about you
When I was sittin thinkin
I was kinda special
You were runnin round
Hittin every other girl in town
How could you love me
When you knew you played me funny
You knew that you were wrong
Dead wrong to be
Mistreating me
How can we go on

Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
Im just about thru
I cant take it, wont take it
Cant take it no more
I had about enough of you

Id rather be on my own
Yes on my own

Deep in my heart
You were number one to start
But then you changed
You threw my heart away
Told your friends that
You were runnin thangs
Whyd it have to be that way
Youre wrong
Dead wrong
Tell me how
How can we go wrong

Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
Im just about thru
I cant take it, wont take it
Cant take it no more
I had about enough of you

Id rather be on my own
Yes on my own
