ON THE CORNER OF
DIVISION AND STATE
SHE WAITING THERE

AT THE MOTEL 8
A SELFISH LOVE AFFAIR
CHOSEN BY FATE

HE KNEW HE'D NEVER CARE
CAUSE HE KNEW SHE'D ALWAYS


BE RIGHT THERE
ONE CALL N SHE'S THERE
FOR A LITTLE BREAK

FROM THE LIFE THAT HE MADE
A COLD-HEARTED SOUL
OUT FOR ONE THING

HE KNEW HE'D NEVER CARE
BUT SHE KNEW NOTHING


ABOUT THAT
THOUGHT SHE WAS THE ONE THAT
ALWAYS BE HIS BETTER HALF

HE SAID BABY
HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY
I LOVED U FROM HELLO


Chorus
SO HOW WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO KNOW?

HE SAID HE LOVED HER SO MUCH
THERES NO LETTING GO
HE'S ALL SHE'S EVER KNOWN...


HOW WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO KNOW
THAT HE ONLY WANTED ONE THING

NIGHT AFTER THE NIGHT
THE MOTEL 8 WAS HER VICE
IT WAS ENOUGH

CAUSE HES THE ONLY ONE
THAT SHE'S EVER LOVED...
HOW WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO KNOW?


..SUPPOSED TO KNOW...


Verse 2
SO MANY NIGHT SHE SPEND
WITH HIM BY HER SIDE

TALKIN BOUT HAVIN KIDS
SHE'D BE HIS WIFE
EVERY WORD HE SAID

ROLLED OFF HIS TONGUE SO SWEET N
SO SMOOTHLY YOU'D


NEVER THINK ITS A GAME THAT HE'S PLAYIN
EVERY WORD HE'S SAYIN
MAKES HER FALL A LITTLE MORE


HE SAID BABY HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY
THAT YOU'RE THE ONE FOR ME?


chorus
HOW WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO KNOW?

HE SAID HE LOVED HER SO MUCH
THERE'S NO LETTING GO
HE'S ALL SHE'S EVER KNOWN


HOW WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO KNOW
THAT HE ONLY WANTED ONE THING

NIGHT AFTER NIGHT
THE MOTEL 8 WAS HER VICE
IT WAS ENOUGH

CAUSE HE'S THE ONLY ONE
THAT SHE'S EVER LOVED...


HOW WAS SHE SUPPOSED TO KNOW?
