I read her letters
And I saw her picture
And I smelled her cheap perfume, hmm
It must have come from you

How could you touch her
Lay down beside her
Well, there just ain´t no excuse
You shouldn´t have been so loose

I saw the telephone bill
You must be out of your mind
If you think you can smooth it over
Then you´re wasting your time

Well, I´m willing to forgive you but I can´t forget
´Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time
And I guess I can go on although I must admit
I´ve been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin´ that I´m gonna mess around some time

You´re such a liar
You took her and her children
Out for the afternoon
While I was sittin´ waitin´ on you

How could you do it
You should´ve been here with me
You just couldn´t do it
You had to be in the streets, uh

Well, I heard through the grapevine
You´ve been messin´ around
When you thought you were gettin´ over
That´s when my baby I found, oh...
Well, I´m willing to forgive you but I can´t forget
´Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time (You really hurt me)
And I guess I can go on although I must admit
I´ve been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin´ that I´m gonna mess around some time

I gave my heart, gave my time
Gave my soul ´cause love was blind
I can´t explain this poor excuse
Of a man of a boy who was born to lose

I paid the rent, washed your clothes
Cooked your food and I only God knows
Only God knows why I stay with you
I guess (Guess I) I´m in love

Well, I´m willing to forgive you but I can´t forget
(Oh, baby, I´m in love, I´m in love, I´m in love, I´m in love)
´Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time
(Ooh, you really hurt me this time, baby)
And I guess I can go on although I must admit (Although I must admit)
I´ve been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin´ that I´m gonna mess around some time
(I´m gonna mess around some time)

I gave my heart, gave my time
Gave my soul ´cause love was blind
I can´t explain this poor excuse
Of a man of a boy who was born to lose

I paid the rent, I washed your clothes
Cooked your food and I only God knows
Only God knows why I stay with you
I guess (Guess I) I´m in love

Well, I´m willing to forgive you but I can´t forget
´Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time
(Ooh, oh, baby, you hurt me, you hurt me)
And I guess I can go on although I must admit
I´ve been busy, busy, busy, busy thinkin´ that I´m gonna mess around some time

I´m willing to forgive you but I can´t forget
(I´m willin´, I´m willin´ and able)
´Cause you really, really, really, really hurt me this time
