Lyrics

I want to tell you how I feel inside
I know I never should have lied
It's not like me to play these games
I wish I could change what happened that day
I should have known what my actions would do
There?s no excuse what I put you through
I really can't blame you for walkin? out on me
Now my whole world seems empty without you baby


CHORUS : I didn't know that bein? a playa
Would make me lose what I got
I wish I would of known the consequences
So that I would have stopped
Now I've got to learn from my mistake
And prove myself again to you
My story is a perfect example of what not to do

Baby where do we go from here
I want to show you that I really care
Can I just take you out somewhere tonight
So I can tell you I am sorry
And start to make things right
All I?m askin? for is more try
I promise you I?ll never make you cry
I hope you know my words are true
Now all I can do is wait for you to decide what you want to do


- CHORUS -


BRIDGE : I was a fool to get caught up in the game
Oh baby, there isn't a day that goes by
Where I dont re-live this pain


- CHORUS-
