D spendin' my money
We only hang out when you have time
If this is a joke, it's no longer funny
Who do you think I am
I'm trying tô understand
So I got ask you
Why did you wanna keep me believin'
You are feelin'
Something we'll never be
I heard you laughin' while I'm leaving
It's bad enough I've been the fool
So why you gotta, why you gotta be cruel
Why you gotta be cruel
Girl I thought by now the games would be over
But it's safe tô say I've never been so wrong
You could've saved us time if you'd just said never
They say loves not fair
No, I shouldn't care
But I got tô ask you
Why did you wanna keep me believin'
You are feelin'
Something we'll never be
I heard you laughin' while I'm leaving
It's bad enough I've been the fool
So why you gotta, why you gotta be cruel
Why you gotta be cruel
I'm lookin'
For somethin'
Someone who can give a little more tô nothin'
Let's call this what it really is
Baby, I'm done
Baby, I'm done askin'
Why did you wanna keep me believin'
You are feelin'
Something we'll never be
I heard you laughin' while I'm leaving
It's bad enough I've been the fool
Why you gotta be so cruel
