I could've been in love by now

Tony don't call no more, don't have it on, no more
Maybe there is something wrong with this phone
Or maybe it's mornin' and the thrill is gone
And I'm not sure that I'm still respected
I'm not in a rush to feel rejected, not by Tony

Tony don't care no more, he doesn't want me there, no more
Um, I just want to know what I did wrong
Damn, this would make a real good song
And I don't have these nights too often
I wish I could take my mind off him, but I really like Tony

And he wasn't just some regular guy
Tony is actually the other night, oh why?

I could've been in love by now if it wasn't for Tony (Tony, Tony)
Ooh, I could've been in love by now if it wasn't for Tony (Tony) ah

Me and Tony don't speak no more
It's almost been a week, oh no
My, how time, it goes so fast, but I still refuse to call his ass
I still remember the way that I reacted
And today is even more attractive, but I really miss Tony

Tony called me one day
He said that he just called to say, hey
And it wasn't until he called me back
That I realized I needed more than that
I'm a lot wiser and a little older
Hey baby, it was nice to know ya, goodbye, Tony

Still, he wasn't just some regular guy
Tony is actually the other night, oh why?

I could've been in love by now if it wasn't for Tony (Tony, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
I could've been in love by now if it wasn't for Tony (Tony, Tony) hey yeah

I don't go with yesterday no more, ooh, ooh
Now I'm feeling free (I'm feeling free)
Today and tomorrow told me (what did he say?)
(That's where I should be) that's where I should be

(So, I'm moving) I'm moving
(Yes, I'm moving on) I'm going, ooh, can't wait forever
(I'm moving on) I'm going
(Yes, I'm moving on) I'm leaving, I miss you, baby

Baby, still, he wasn't just some regular guy
Tony is actually the other night
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

If it wasn't for Tony
Ooh, I could've been in love by now
If it wasn't for Tony, Tony, Tony

(I'm moving) I'm moving (yes, I'm moving on) I'm going

    damn i love solange's music I really don't understand why she's not higher than beyonce in the entertainment buisness because, her music is so different and its the type of music we need and she's just so original. keep doing ur thing girl

    In my opinion I may be wrong but I think the song is about a guy "tony" not specific...that was a one night-stand but your feelings grow and you want it to be more (knowing the feelings are for the wrong reasons). You start questioning yourself why isn't he calling or coming around...but then you have to realize "tony" was just a one night thing...and thats why she goes about saying "tony actually the other night oh y" which all goes back to who T.O.N.Y is.

    at first i didn't understand the song, but after listening again i realized it was about a one night stand, something i can totally relate to. Good job Solange... I love this song ...

    I applaud Solange for having a song with some depth and age-appropriateness. She seems to have the maturity her sister lacks in her music. Come on B you're almost 30, stop singin' about dancin' in the club!
