Lately I've got this funny feeling
Something don't feel the same
But he's telling me
I'm the one to blame
Yes, I know that he still
Gives me good loving
But when he's deep inside
There's somebody else on his mind
Chorus:
Don't waste your time
But it gets so hard to know
Just walk away
You say that I gotta let go
Seen it a millions times before
You shouldn't take his stuff no more
Can't waste my time
Girl, it's not hard to know
Should walk away
Oh, you've gotta let him go
Seen it a millions times before
Shouldn't take his ish no more
Sister girl, sister girl
It's much deeper
Than what you're thinking
When something
Don't feel the same
Hey you better believe
His love has change
(And I have been telling you, telling you)
And what you're telling me
(Cuz it's been hurting me, hurting me)
It ain't, ain't any fool can see
He's got a sweetie on the side
Stop making truth out of his lies
(Chorus)
What's the point of love
When you got no trust
What's the point of staying
When you seen enough
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve
He don't deserve it
No you don't deserve it
Oh, what's the point of feeling
Like there's nothing inside
What's the point of saying
That you still got your pride
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve
This is a lesson of love
(Chorus)
