We met at the party 'bout almost 2 years ago
But there was a part of me that she just didn't know
I tried to hide it from her, but it didn't take long
Before she would follow me, and
See where I go.
I wanted to tell her, but I just didn't know how
And every time I'd spoke the words just wouldn't come out
Everyone will tell you that old habits die hard
And it's just the same for me
She wouldn't compromise,
She wanna stand her ground,
She wouldn't talk to me,
She wouldn't make the sound
She wanna say goodbye
I wanna reconcile
What type of shit is she on?
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
I'm guilty it's getting to me but she wasn't home
Keep trying to call but she won't pick up the phone
My conscience is speaking to me, but I'm in the wrong
She don't wanna talk to me
She'd rather go
Tried to apologize for the lies that I told
She don't wanna hear it, and tells me leave her alone
I didn't appreciate her until she was gone
Now it's too late for that
She wouldn't compromise,
She'd wanna stand her ground,
She wouldn't talk to me,
She wouldn't make the sound
She wanna say goodbye
I wanna reconcile
What type of shit is she on?
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
She won't even talk to me now
She won't even talk to me now
She won't even talk to me now
She won't, She won't!
I should've left that side of town alone
I should've left that side of the town alone
I should've left that side of town alone
A long time ago
