Texty: Kelly Rowland. Don't Want You Back.
when you came by this morning,
boy, you caught me off guard,
who would have thought it would be you
when i opened the door!
and it made me realize, yes, i still think of you
yes, i still love you man, yes i'm still missing you!
yeah, i almost forgot to say i love
thinking about how it was before.
we got to talking, started remembering
all the times we had, trying to get them back.
then you ask if i could take you back.
chorus:
oh, i can forgive,
but i can't forget all the fights that we had,
i can forgive,
but i won't forget the way that you hurt me like that!
i'll never forgive you for cheating, lying and leaving,
treating me so bad!
i'll always love you, but i can't forget,
so i don't want you back!
call me selfish, call me scared,
but i'mma call it common sense,
cause my heart ain't prepared
to try to do this all again!
cause i can't let you go, no!
i can't take the pain, no!
i can't be with you, no,
the love will turn in hate!
hate to love you like i do,
knowing that i'm not over you,
so don't you make a smile,
don't try to bring it back
to the time we had cause i'm done with that.
don't ask again, if i'mma take you back, no, no!
chorus:
oh, i can forgive,
but i can't forget all the fights that we had,
i can forgive,
but i won't forget the way that you hurt me like that!
i'll never forgive you for cheating, lying and leaving,
treating me so bad!
i'll always love you, but i can't forget,
so i don't want you back!
cause i've been through this before
and i know exactly where it goes,
yeah, yeah, yeah!
i don't like where it leads,
so i think i'm taking other road, oh, oh.
you came back, told me i i'll have regrets,
but at least i know my heart is safe!
so let's end this, before another mistake is made!
chorus: (x2)
