Almost Gone (Interlude)

[Verse: Lalah Hathaway & Mary J. Blige]
How many ways can you break my heart
And leave me here torn all apart and almost gone?
How many ways can you do me wrong
And how many times can I write the same song
Of love alone?
How many times will the world run dry?
And how many ways can you tell the same lie?
I'm almost gone
Again and again and around and round
You get me so high and watch my life come tumbling down
Time after time it's the same old thing
You leave alone in this wretched kingdom
I'm almost gone

[Refrain: Mary J. Blige & Lalah Hathaway]
I swear, swear, I swear
Next time, nеxt time
I swear
Oooh, mmm

[Verse: Lalah Hathaway & Mary J. Blige]
How many ways can you break my hеart
And leave me here torn all apart and almost gone?
How many ways can you do me wrong
And how many times can I write the same old song
Of love alone?
Again and again and around and round
You get me so high and watch
While I come tumbling down
Time after time it's the same old thing
You leave alone in this wretched kingdom
I'm almost gone

[Refrain: Lalah Hathaway & Mary J. Blige]
I swear...
Next time, oh, oh, oh, yeah
I'm almost gone
