Good-Bye Love

For the longest time I've only wanted to love you but didn't know how After all you've put me through, you tell me you're ready now But as each day passes by I've finally begun to understand You could care less about how I feel, you never thought to reach out your hand Frustrations build in my head, making me feel so alone How could I be so blind and not see the disrepect has grown? It only takes one kiss or a few words for you to ease my pain But baby if I don't walk away from you now all we'll have is rain So when I say good-bye one last time Understand I only tried to make you happy while you were mine Time after time, I was patient with you And now I find out you were creepin on the low instead of being true You've tried to convince me again and again it was she who lied These lonely nights spent by myself make me realize a part of me has died As much as I want you stading by my side I've learned to look away Now that you see I've had enough you're begging me to stay All I can do is look at you and shake my head You weren't too concerned about me when you had another woman layin' in our bed Stop blamin me for your mistakes, I won't put up with it anymore Don't act like you arent like other men, you know what I'm walkin' away for It's not much different without you, wait that's not the truth Instead of being brought down I'm a strong woman once again Bye for just one last time while we're sittin' here arguin' about where I was last night Tell me how it feels now to be walked out on in a middle of a fight! There is only one more thing I need to tell, in the morning you're gone If not there will be drama when your clothes are thrown out on the wet lawn Don't look at me as if I'm the one doin' you wrong You were the one that didn't believe me when I said I couldn't put it up with it for long This is where our story ends, there's not much more to say Your boys have told me how you're doing, looks like you're not too worried about yesterday That is how I know I'm glad I have moved on My heart has healed, and my tears are finally GONE!
