Gotta Leave

Ask me no questions, when I try to tell you
My best intentions, were always with you
And don't raise your voice, just try to understand
Save your loving, for some other man
Oh, you must have gotten me confused, with some other man
Who will lay you down, on the line for you
Tell me how, can I trust you, when you can't trust yourself
I've gotta leave you, baby, find myself, somebody else
Ooh
Thought we were over it, hmm, thought we'd passed the worst
It was so always hard to tell, if it were a blessing or a curse
Sometimes it was so sweet, in between a lying
Every time we spent laughing, there was two times I spent crying
Oh, you must have gotten me confused, with some other man
Who will lay you down, on the line for you
Tell me how, can I trust you, when you can't trust yourself
I've gotta leave you, baby, find myself, somebody else
Ooh
Can't keep hiding
No no you can't keep lying
Oh, you must have gotten me confused, with some other man
Who will lay you down, on the line for you
Tell me how, can I trust you, when you can't trust yourself
I've gotta leave you baby, find myself, somebody else
Ooh
