After all of the times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
I woke up kinda early today
And something told me from that moment
It wouldn't be the same
It felt like you were hiding something
But I didn't push it
I didn't complain or say nothin'
I tried to act like I didn't see it
'Cause deep down I knew I didn't want to believe it
But there it was, it was you and her
You left your sidekick on the nightstand
And I read
Everything you did, and everything you said and
And now I'm standing here looking like "damn!"
I thought it was you and I
Now I all I got to say is "why?"
After all of these times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
I notice now, that when I am around
You be trying to lock the door
Whispering on the phone
Now wait a minute since we been in this house
You ain't never did this before
Tell me what's this about?
I tried to sit and say to myself
This here is too good he don't want nothing else
But there it was, it was you and her
You left your credit card receipt inside the beamer babe
Everything you bought her, and everything you spending
Now I'm standing here once again
I thought it was you and I
Now I all I have to say is why?
After all of these times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
You lied, you lied
Oh, why? Oh, why?
Why'd you have to lie to me?
Why'd you have to lie to me?
Why'd you have to lie to me?
Why?
After all of the times that we've tried
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made
I know now you don't love me the same
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I love you
The way that I love
The way that I loved you
