Ain' t that the way ( Ain' t that the way)
Ain' t that the way ( where you go)
Ain' t that the way it goe, baby, because I know
( ah, here we go)
Chorus
Ain' t that the way you try to run away
Ain' t that the foolish game you try to play
But Baby that ain' t the way it goes
Believe me 'cause I know
You gonna learn the hard way
I heard your message on the phone today
And it heard me all the heardins you were saying
you said you need to get away
( go away from me, baby), yeah
I wonder what you feel on your mind
What would make you feel
That you need the time
To be away from me baby (baby) yeah
Ask myself what have I been doing wrong
So what else been going on (going on)
Are you messing around on, baby ( Don' t mess with)
Still believe that your hear belongs to mine ( baby)
But if you leave, boy, I' m gonna be fine ( it' s enough)
After all this time
Why you wanna throw it away?
Chorus
Ain' t that the way you try to run away
Ain' t the foolish game you try to play
But Baby that ain' t the way it goes ( Ain' t the way)
Believe me because I Know ( Ain' t the way)
You gonna learn the hard way ( hard way)
Ain' t that the way you try to make me cry ( uuuh, yeah)
That' s pulling me down and try to critisize
But Baby that ain' the way it goes
Believe me 'cause I know
I gonna have to say Goodbye
(yeah)
It hurts me what you' re feeling inside
All those years I' ve been by your side ( by your side)
I think it' s time to put this right ( it' s time, it' s time)
I know you feel that you need to make a change
But all you' re doing is possibly paid
I should' ve known it long ago
Ain' t that the way
Rap:
Yeah, that' s the way you wanna pull me down, baby
Where you wanna go down, Lady
This time, somehow
This game that you played ( ah)
Where you will that I stay
Oh girl, don' t you know what it takOne look and I saw
What I wanted to see,
You know that you
Wrapped my heart around your finger
So easily, yeah
With your centerfold body
Going through the moves
Why did I keep wasting the truth for you, tonight
CHORUS:
I won't be cryin', cryin',
When I think about you,
'cos I opened my eyes
And I won't be cryin', cryin',
'cos those days are gone, gone
Someone twisted you, so you gave it to me, yeah you gave it to me good
You're a nightmare everywhere, disguised as a dream
Well I got lost, wandering through
The darkness in your maze of lies
Your trapdoor-way right into my insides, but tonight
I won't be cryin', cryin',
When I think about you,
'cos I opened my eyes
And I won't be cryin', cryin'
The tears are falling to the floor,
But you won't catch me cryin' anymore
(Solo)
chorus repeats out
