Unfaithful
Rihanna · 3 CD Collector's Set [2010]
Story of my life, searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul, 'cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company
He's more than a man, and this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
But clouds are rolling in, because I'm gone again
And to him I just can't be true
And I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Every time I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be, a murderer
I feel it in the air, as I'm doing my hair
Preparing for another date
A kiss up on my cheek, as he reluctantly
Asks if I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long, just hanging with the girls
A lie I didn't have to tell
Because we both know, where I'm about to go
And we know it very well
'Cause I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Every time I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be, a murderer
Our love, his trust, I might as well take a gun
And put it to his head, get it over with
I don't wanna do this, anymore, Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Whoa-Oh, Oh-Oh-Oh, anymore
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
And every time I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
And I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be, a murderer
Oh, a murderer
No-No-No, Yeah, Aye-Aye-Aye
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul, 'cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company
He's more than a man, and this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
But clouds are rolling in, because I'm gone again
And to him I just can't be true
And I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Every time I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be, a murderer
I feel it in the air, as I'm doing my hair
Preparing for another date
A kiss up on my cheek, as he reluctantly
Asks if I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long, just hanging with the girls
