Don't Play That Song For Me
Mariah Carey · Other Songs - Mariah Carey
Cause it brings back memories
Of days that I once knew
Those days that I spent with you
Oh no don't leave me
Cause it fills up my heart with pain
So please stop it right away
Cause I remember just what he said
He said, "Darling I love you"
But I know that he lied
"Darling I need you"
Know that he lied
"Darling I love you"
Darling you lied
You lied
You lied
To me
Hey mister!
Don't play no more
Don't play it no more
I can't stand it
Don't play it no more
No more, no more
No more I can't stand it
I remember on our first date
He kissed me and he walked away
I was only 17
I never dreamed he'd be so mean
He told me Darling
"Darling I love you"
But baby baby you lied
"Darling I need you"
You lied
"Darling I love you"
Darling you lied
You lied
Lied
You lied
To me
"Darling I love you"
But I know that you lied
"Darling I need you"
I know that you lied
"Darling I love you"
Darling you lied
You lied
Lied you lied
Lied to me and hurt me
You lied
Don't play it no more
Don't do it
Don't play it no more
Cause I can't stand it no more
