One, two, one, two, one, two

You think I was hurting,  but damn I wasn't

I was looking for all of the pain through your eyes

Don't do it

Don't do it to me

Cause you know I need someone in my life

Like you, oh no

Why do we always need someone else

To lean up on and get the other half done for ya

Baby I don't need you

I don't need you honey

But I need you



PRECHORUS

Life, it's my preference, and I choose love

Because I trust in you

Though your decadence shows me the light

Sometimes it's just too tight

I'm contemplating just what to do

I invest my soul but I gotta change my truth



CHORUS

Oh, just 'cause he says he loves you

Doesn't mean that he do

Just 'cause he says he needs you

Doesn't mean that it's true

You know you really don't love him

You know he really don't care

To him you're just another woman

To you he's another affair



Over, and over again

I attempted to pretend, there's a means

Before we end, oh no

Shattered pieces of my heart

Mended though they fall apart

I don't need the questions on

Why I do what I do

'Cause I'm cold in every sense of the word

And you've been too

Take a slice of your strife

And multiply by two

When you look at me

'Cause that's the way I'm looking at you



PRECHORUS



Just 'cause he says he loves you

Doesn't mean that he do

Just 'cause he says he needs you

Doesn't mean that it's true

(x 4)
