VERSE
Maybe I was too young to fully understand
That's why I never healed from it healthy
Why I never trusted a man
You gotta love the way you have
and I'll take that to my grave
Soon you'll open up your eyes and it'll all be gone one day
And I'm sitting here convincing you to pick up the phone and call I am my father's daughter
but I'm nothing like him at all
I hear him in the way I speak and when I look in the mirror
The anger's grown in me and shows
Could it be any clearer that
'cause he made me the way I am
when we're fighting and all I need is somebody
CHORUS
And I'm crying on my mama's floor
Why don't you want this anymore?
And I'm craving you to change for me
You're saying I hear you and I love
you But my heart it hurts for
you And I just cannot give you what you need
'Cause you said you wouldn't give up
Now I'm, numb on my knees
Praying to God you talk to me
Wondering what it takes for you to stay
and far out of my bloodstream
VERSE
You never laid your hands on me
But I should've known that you'd gone mad when I saw the way you punched your doors
And I don't regret loving you 'cause
I know that you needed it
But the way you treated me made me feel like a little kid
And Something deep inside of me tells me that you're not better now
And I'm sorry that I couldn't help
CHORUS
I'm crying on my mama's floor
Why don't you want this anymore?
And I'm craving you to change for me
You're saying I hear you and I love
you But my heart, it hurts for
you And I just cannot give you what you need
'Cause you said you wouldn't give up
Praying to God you talk to me
Wondering what it takes for you to stay
and far out of my bloodstream
