Verse 1 - Male Vocal]
There was a time
When I was so naïve,
Fell so easily for your game,
The game you used to call love.
I thought you did everything right,
That you’d never have the courage (mmmmm),
The courage to lie to me.
You used to say:
"Love without lies, without mistakes."
Boy, I must have been out of my mind,
'Cause I didn’t see your lies...
So...
Now when I think
Of the time we spent together,
Of the time I almost loved you,
You showed me who you really were.
And I thought I truly saw you,
But it was just a reflection in the mirror,
A reflection I refused to see.
But thank God, you ruined everything.
I thank God, 'cause I got away from you.
(ruuuuuuuuuuu mmmmmmm)
So boy, thanks for the attention.
Thanks for wasting my time
"My precious time with you"
Back then, I wanted you so bad,
I was out of my mind, couldn’t see
How much of a fool I’d be in your hands.
I left home,
Left it all, walked away,
With hope in your love.
I believed in your empty words,
And in the end, it was all a lie.
Like Beyoncé said:
"’Cause honestly, you turned out to be the
" best thing I never had"
And I will always be the
(best thing you’ll never have)."
Now when I think
(I think mmm)
Of the time we spent together
(together),
Of the time I almost loved you
(loved you),
You showed me who you really were.
And I thought I truly saw you,
But it was just a reflection in the mirror,
A reflection I refused to see.
But thank God, you ruined everything.
I thank God, 'cause I got away from you.
(got away from you)
Oh, yeah.
I bet you're hurting now
(And I don’t even care).
Did you expect me to?
Know that you don’t deserve my tears.
Maybe that’s why I never cried.
When I think:
How could I have loved you?
How foolish was I?
But I won’t be that again.
Never again!!!!
Now when I think
(I think mmm)
Of the time we spent together,
Of the time I almost loved you
(loved you),
You showed me who you really were.
And I thought I truly saw you,
But it was just a reflection in the mirror,
A reflection I refused to see.
But thank God, you ruined everything.
I thank God, 'cause I got away from you.
(got away from you)
Now when I think
(I think mmm)
Of the time we spent together,
Of the time I almost loved you
(loved you),
You showed me who you really were.

But it was just a reflection in the mirror,
A reflection I refused to see.
But thank God, you ruined everything.
I thank God, 'cause I got away from you.

"What goes around, comes back around."
What goes around, comes back around."
