[Intro]

Not this time, not this time

Not this time, not this time

Not this time, not this time

Not this time, not this time



You told me that my love was all

Good for you

But when I'm not around

There's always someone new

With all my trust

And every little kiss

I can't believe you played me out

Like this



All my friends told me

I was not your only

Guess my heart was wrong again



[1] - How can I be with someone like you?

After all of the things that you put me through

How could you lie, lookin' straight in my eyes

Sorry baby, not this time



Not this time, not this time

Not this time, not this time



The other night when I was out

With my friends

When we were chillin' at the club

When you walked in

Said you were stayin' home

Here you come and not alone

Tell me what the... is goin' on



Baby what goes around

Always comes back around

She'll be the one to bring you down



[Repeat 1]



Here I am, all alone

Wondering where it all went wrong

Guess my love was not enough

For you to stay



Can't believe you did me wrong

Shoulda known, so now I'm gone

All the things I did for you

All the things you put me through

Tellin' me you wanna stay with me

But all along you was playin' me

But all the games have gotta stop this time

It worked before, but not this time



With all my trust

And every little kiss

I can't believe you played me out



[Repeat 1 to fade]
