Songtexte: Monica. Other. Lesson Learned.

[Verse 1]
Lately we haven't had a chance to speak
Cause you aint really had no time for me
Maybe there's somewhere else you'd rather be
And I don't understand it at all
If I recall I gave you everything
But I can't remember one time you sacrificed for me
And I'm starting to feel like I'm losing myself
So I think that I'll just live with what's left

[Chorus]
Why did you treat me like a girl on the side
Why did you have to go and make me cry
Boy tell me
You could've walked away
Rather than cause me pain
Baby I aint really need it at all
And I cant make you love me
So I aint trying that
You won't make a fool of me
So you can forget that
Going out a leading lady
How my mama raised me
Take the stripes that I've earned lesson learned

[Verse 2]
Why did you have to go and lie to me
When you were out there running in the streets
Well I'm tired of calling your cell phone
4 o'clock in the morning
You pick it up and all I hear is....
If I was too much woman all you had to say was
That you wasn't ready
And I would've understood
Well let me calm down
Why should I be mad
When honestly it aint nothing you stressing bout

[Chorus]
Why did you treat me like a girl on the side
Why did you have to go and make me cry
Boy tell me
You could've walked away
Rather than cause me pain
Baby I aint really need it at all
And I can't make you love me
So I aint trying that
You won't make a fool of me
So you can forget that
Going out a leading lady
How my mama raised me
Take the stripes that I've earned lesson learned

[Bridge]
Gave so many chances you blew it over again
Time and time I wonder why
You put me after your friends
You couldn't tell me the real
Boy do you know how it feels
When I call your phone and you don't call back
I know you can't be for real uh uh
So I packed my bags uh
And aint comn back
Treat me like I don't know you
What part of the game is that
Boy I aint turning around
This is no place for me to be
You never meant enough for me

[Chorus]
Why did you treat me like a girl on the side
Why did you have to go and make me cry
Boy tell me
You could've walked away
Rather than cause me pain
Baby I aint really need it at all
And I can't make you love me
So I aint trying that
You won't make a fool of me
So you can forget that
Going out a leading lady
How my mama raised me
Take the stripes that I've earned lesson learned

Oh I, I learned my lesson [x2]

I'm leaving you
That's what I gotta do
You can't make a fool of me

I'm leaving
L-leaving you, u u u u u u u

Hayyyyy!!!!
