You held my hand and walked me home, I know
While you gave me that kiss, it was something like this, it made me go ooh ohh
You wiped my tears, got rid of all my fears, why did you have to go?
Guess you wasn't enough to take up some of my love
Guys are so hard to trust
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that
Girl the one who gives it all away
[Chorus:]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Don't try to tell me what to say,
You're better off that way
Don't think that you charm in the fact that your arm is now around my neck
Will get you in my pants I'll have to kick your ass and make you never forget
I'm gonna ask you to stop. Thought I liked you a lot, but I'm really upset
So get out of my head,get off of my bed yeah that's what I said
Did I not tell you that I'm not like that
Girl the one who throws it all away?
[Chorus]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was something I was gonna do and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Don't try to tell me what to say,
You're better off that way
This guilt trip that you put me on won't
mess me up I've done no wrong
Any thoughts of you and me have gone away
[Chorus]
Did you think that I was gonna give it up to you, this time?
Did you think that it was something I was gonna do
and cry?
Don't try to tell me what to do,
Don't try to tell me what to say,
You're better off that way
Better off that way
I'm better off alone anyway
