[Intro]
What goes around
Comes back around
What goes around (baby what goes around come on)
Comes back around (all comes back around)

[Verse 1]
Looks like the argument we had make you mad
Could you never thought you can call (I thought I knew you, all I knew)
I thought I knew you that you respect the promises we make
But girl you did deny it when you walk right out the door

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby won't you close (baby close your eyes)
Close your eyes and think of me
Would you do the things that I did (would you do the things I did)
I can make your dreams come true (see I can make your dreams)
Come true tonight (come true tonight)
Love (see we can meake love)
All night long (but something just ain't right)

[Chorus]
What goes around (baby what goes around, yeah yeah)
Comes back around (will surely come back around if you be, yeah yeah)
What goes around (baby what goes around, oh yeah yeah yeah)
Comes back around (will come back on you baby baby, yes it will)

[Verse 2]
Now all night long I wonder, why play a fool
And why I didn't read between the lines
Like you came home late (yeah yeah)
Said you with your girlfriend (yeah yeah)
In the land that hang up on the phone
Everybody know baby what in the hell is going on

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you close (baby close)
Close your eyes (And think of me)
Would you do the things that I did (would you do the things I did)
I can make your dreams come true (see I can make your dreams)
Tonight (come true tonight)
Love (see we can make love)
All night long (but something just ain't right)

[Chorus]
What goes around (baby what goes around, yeah yeah)
Comes back around (will surely come back around if you let it oh yes it will)
What goes around (baby what goes around, yeah yeah)
Comes back around (will surely come back around, yeah)
What goes around (see you can't get through it wrong)
Comes back around (see baby can't get through it wrong, yeah yeah yeah)

Keith Sweat is an R&B singer-songwriter from New York. He helped innovate the New Jack Swing genre with his first album in 1987, Make It Last Forever, which featured the upbeat “I Want Her” and the provocative title track.

Almost a decade later, Sweat found the R&B groups Silk and Kut Klose and signed them to his own record label. His fifth album, which was self-titled and released in 1996, resulted in the certified-platinum hits, “Twisted” and “Nobody.” He went on to win “Favorite Male R&B/Soul Artist” at the 1997 American Music Awards.

Currently, he hosts a syndicated R&B radio show in New York City.
