How many times
It's hard to say
That I'm waking up next to you
And you're not on the bed
Got on a plane
I'll be back next week
And left without so much
Just a kiss on cheek
You're always gone
And I'm never home
Thought me everything
I know about being alone
What do I do when I need you
Who do I call
When I don't want to do it no more
Ooh
I'm not trying to make you hurt
But you're getting exactly what you deserve
So you can't tell me
That I don't have every reason in this world
To leave you right now
I can count a thousand times
That you made me cry
A thousand games you used to play
And so I guess that a thousand goodbyes
A thousand goodbyes
Is all that I have to say
Tell me what you're thinking that
When I told you that me and you
We are finally over
Make it a memory
That's ancient history
I know that I can't help
But keep looking over my shoulder
Love is like a mark
that never goes away
And you got a part of my heart
that I forever gave away
What do I do when I need you
Who do I call
When I don't want to do it no more
Ooh
I'm not trying to make you hurt
But you're getting exactly what you deserve
So you can't tell me
That I don't have every reason in this world
To leave you right now
I can count a thousand times
That you made me cry
A thousand games you used to play
And so I guess that a thousand goodbyes
A thousand goodbyes
Is all that I have to say
Theres nothing that's harder for me
in this world then to not be your girl
But I won't stand
the cheating and lies
You're no kind of man
You won't give any respect for me
cause you never were there
You neglected me
I'd rather spend my nights with somebody who treats me
like I'm supposed to be
Man, I gave you everything
I gave you my time
I gave you my heart
But you couldn't give me anything in return
All them late nights worrying about you
A thousand times you didn't call
A thousand tears you never cried
All I have left to you is a thousand goodbyes
I'm not trying to make you hurt
But you're getting exactly what you deserve
So you can't tell me
That I don't have every reason in this world
To leave you right now
I can count a thousand times
That you made me cry
A thousand games you used to play
And so I guess that a thousand goodbyes
A thousand goodbyes
Is all that I have to say
It's all that I have
It's all that I have to say
For all the lies
A thousand goodbyes
