I Thought I Told You That

there's a boy that i'm into, he's so fly, so cute
i dreamt of, him every night, he had me, on cloud nine
thought i could trust him, why?, he said to me when i needed him
he was there for me, then i found out he did the same
for every girl, with a pretty face

i just wanted to believe that
he was so innocent, so sweet
he did everything for me and
people told me all along, he was wrong
but i was so naive
don't let him do to you what he did to me

thought i told you that, he would break your heart
he was no good for you, from the start
thought i told you that, he had another girl
you're not the only woman in his world
thought i told you that, he would make you cry
i don't see how you believe his lie
thought i told you that, i hate to say that i told you so
take it from me, you better leave him alone

he played me the whole time, that's why i'm warning you
i'm not the jealous type
‘cause i've already been there done that
and nothing that he says will make me want him back
it does matter what he sends me
a dozen flowers or a diamond that's bling bling
it's all good but i'm not the one to be staying home while he's having fun

i just wanted to believe that
he was so innocent, so sweet
he did everything for me and
people told me all along, he was wrong
but i was so naive
don't let him do to you what he did to me

thought i told you that, he would break your heart
he was no good for you, from the start
thought i told you that, he had another girl
you're not the only woman in his world
thought i told you that, he would make you cry
i don't see how you believe his lie
thought i told you that, i hate to say that i told you so
take it from me, you better leave him alone

girlfriend, i'm just trying to make you see
that it's not about you, it's not about me
you can't let him get the best of you this way
you gotta love yourself and just walk away

thought i told you that, he would break your heart
he was no good for you, from the start
thought i told you that, he had another girl
you're not the only woman in his world
thought i told you that, he would make you cry
i don't see how you believe his lie
thought i told you that, i hate to say that i told you so
take it from me, you better leave him alone

thought i told you that, he would break your heart
he was no good for you, from the start
thought i told you that, he had another girl
you're not the only woman in his world
thought i told you that, he would make you cry
i don't see how you believe his lie
thought i told you that, i hate to say that i told you so
take it from me, you better leave him alone
