You know I really hate to be this way
I know every game that you goin' play
And I know every lie that you goin' say
There's no need to go on about it.
You know I really hate to be this way
But it's in a way you treated them
You think that imma' let you strike again
No, I think I'll do without it.
I gotta work it up,
I might be falling in love
You give me what I need
Everything I dreamed of
Yes I'm a silly girl
'coz I'm passing you up
But I must lay you free
'coz I've been through enough.
(bridge)
It's a shame (its a shame)
That I can't ( that I can't)
Be with you, 'coz I'm scared.
I would really think I'm falling if you hurt me so...
I'd rather not be in love.
Chorus
You know I really hate to be this way
I know every game that you goin' play
And I know every lie that you goin' say
There's no need to go on about it.
You know I really hate to be this way
But it's in a way you treated them
You think that imma' let you strike again
No, I think I'll do without it.
Love has a prize
But I ain't spending the dough
You'll be in love today
Out of love tomorrow
I've seen it anyway,
Heard it all before
And though my heart agrees
My mind's tellin' me no.
(bridge)
It's a shame (its a shame)
That I can't ( that I can't)
Be with you, 'coz I'm scared.
I would really think I'm falling if you hurt me so...
I'd rather not be in love.
Chorus
You know I really hate to be this way
I know every game that you goin' play
And I know every lie that you goin' say
There's no need to go on about it.
You know I really hate to be this way
But it's in a way you treated them
You think that imma' let you strike again
No, I think I'll do without it.
I just can't do, that love thing with you
I know what you do, and I know your trying, I can see
But no way cool, and I know it's cool
What else can I say, but I really hate to be this way.
Chorus
You know I really hate to be this way
I know every game that you goin' play
And I know every lie that you goin' say
There's no need to go on about it.
You know I really hate to be this way
But it's in a way you treated them
You think that imma' let you strike again
No, I think I'll do without it.
