The Truth

Really shoulda told me you was dealing with her
But instead you tried to play me like I had all your love
Every time I asked you, you would tell me a lie
And I wanna know why, and I wanna know why

But it's alright, goodbye, so long, get gone, nice try
Next time you should tell the truth

Your eyes, your smile, hiding things inside, oh
I believed it when you told me that you was feelin' lonely
And no one else could make you feel like this
Then why was she gettin' it?

Really shoulda told me you was dealing with her
But instead you tried to play me like I had all your love
Every time I asked you, you would tell me a lie
And I wanna know why, and I wanna know why

But it's alright, goodbye, so long, get gone, nice try
Next time you should tell the truth

You said she's a friend
But why she call me trippin'? Call me flippin'?
I believed it when you told me that you was feelin' lonely
And no one else could make you feel like this
Then why was she gettin' it?

Really shoulda told me you was dealing with her
But instead you tried to play me like I had all your love
Every time I asked you, you would tell me a lie
And I wanna know why, and I wanna know why

But it's alright, goodbye, so long, get gone, nice try
Next time you should tell the truth

Boy, you know the game
The best thing was just to be honest with me
Believed it when you said
I was the only one that you were seeing

I think it was a nice try baby
You had me going a little crazy
But if I was the only one
Then why'd she tell me that she was getting it?

Really shoulda told me you was dealing with her
But instead you tried to play me like I had all your love
Every time I asked you, you would tell me a lie
And I wanna know why, and I wanna know why

But it's alright, goodbye, so long, get gone, nice try
Next time you should tell the truth

Alright, goodbye, so long, get gone, nice try
Next time you should tell the truth
