Ain't That the Way

Ain't that the way - ain't that the way - ain't
That the way it goes - believe me cause I know

Ain't that the way you try to run away - ain't
That the foolish game you try to play - 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 hurt me all the things you were sayin'
- you sad you need to get away - I wonder
What you feel in your mind - what would
Make you feel that you need the time - to be
Away from me baby ... (baby)

Asked myself what have I been doing wrong
- so what the hell's been going on - are you
Messin' around on me baby (don't mess
With me) - still believe that your heart
Belongs to mine - but if you leave boy I'm
Gonna be fine . after all this time why you
Wanna throw it away

Anin't that the way you try to run away - ain't
That the foolish game you try to play - baby
That ain't the way it goes believe me cause I
Know - you gonna learn the hard way - ain't
That the way you try to make me cry - by
Puttin' me down and tryin' to criticize - baby
That ain't the way it goes believe me cause I
Know - it's time for me to say goodbuy

It hurts me what I'm feelin' inside - all those
Years I've been by your side - I think it's time to
Put things right - I know you feel that you
Need to make a change - but all you're doin'
Is causing me pain - I should have known it
Long ago - ain't that the way
