NLT · Other Songs - NLT
Never meant to cause you no pain
When I said I never wanted to see you again, Ohh
Took advantage of all that I gave, babe
So what's the news, tryen to get me to stay
Tried everything to make this thing work
Cause I found that you were god's gift to the earth, no
You could have told me we wouldn't be, yea
Together... forever
CHORUS:
Tell me why, now that I'm leaven you're missen me
Tell me why, (oh why) when I loved you, you hated me
Tell me why, (oh why) now that I moved on you're wanting me
But baby its too late now I don't want to go back to yesterday

Everyday I try to do the best that I can ohh
But you never thought that I'd be the one, yeah

CHORUS:
Please, tell me why, now that I'm leaven you're missen me you're missen me
Tell me why, when I loved you, you hated me
Tell me why, now that I moved on you're wanting me, yeah, yeah
Baby but its too late now I don't want to go back to yester
BRIDGE:
No I don't want you back no I don't feel your pain
You gotta understand that I'm finally a man
Please don't say anymore

Aint nothing you can do
