Did I not love enough to keep your attention on and on
Am I the stupid one for doing everything that I did for us
I put a pillow under your hair
Gave you tender loving my care
And I didn’t make it a thing
Ya mama didn’t know that I was there
I tried to swallow my pride
When you left me lonely outside
And I didn’t know you would never show
You’re so comfortable with white lies
Looking like a fool what else could I do after all we’ve been through it still hurts
But I forgive you, though my friends tell me not to
I forgive you even when it’s so hard to
When we are good we’re great
But I couldn’t keep on carrying on this way
Won’t ever be the same
But I’d rather know ya better off than where you left us
I put a pillow under your hair
Gave you tender loving my care
And I didn’t make it a thing
Ya mama didn’t know that I was there
You know I tried to swallow my pride
When you left me lonely outside
And I didn’t know you would never show
You’re so comfortable with white lies
Looking like a fool what else could I do after all we’ve been through it still hurts
But I forgive you, though my friends tell me not to
I forgive you even when it’s so hard to
Maybe we can get together someday
But I want you to know we’re ok we’re ok
But I want you to know we’re ok we’re ok
But I forgive you, though my friends tell me not to
I forgive you even when it’s so hard to I had to, yeah
Maybe we can get together someday
But I want you to know we’re ok
