I read her letters
and i saw her picture
and i smelled her cheap perfume, hmm
it must have come from you
How could you touch her
lay down beside her
well, there just ainand't no excuse
you shouldnand't have been so loose
I saw the telephone bill
you must be out of your mind
if you think you can smooth it over
then youand're wasting your time
Well, iand'm willing to forgive you but i canand't forget
and'cause you really, really, really, really
hurt me this time
and i guess i can go on although i must admit
iand've been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkinand' that iand'm gonna mess around some time
Youand're such a liar
you took her and her children
out for the afternoon
while i was sittinand' waitinand' on you
How could you do it
you shouldand've been here with me
you just couldnand't do it
you had to be in the streets, uh
Well, i heard through the grapevine
youand've been messinand' around
when you thought you were gettinand' over
thatand's when my baby i found, oh...
well, iand'm willing to forgive you but i canand't forget
and'cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time (you really hurt me)
and i guess i can go on although i must admit
iand've been busy, busy, busy, busy
thinkinand' that iand'm gonna mess around some time
I gave my heart, gave my time
=gave my soul and'cause love was blind
i canand't explain this poor excuse
of a man of a boy who was born to lose
I paid the rent, washed your clothes
cooked your food and i only god knows
only god knows why i stay with you
i guess (guess i) iand'm in love
Well, iand'm willing to forgive you but i canand't forget
(oh, baby, iand'm in love, iand'm in love, iand'm in love, iand'm in love)
cause you really, really, really, really
and'hurt me this time
(ooh, you really hurt me this time, baby)
