Used to hear me say
Baby, I need you, I'm lonely and deprived
And without your love I can't get through the day
When you're gone my world just slowly fades away
And I

Gave you my lovin' every time you asked
Gave my heart, held nothing back
Now I see that you couldn't handle that
Oh, how things have changed

Maybe it was that I was insecure
That won't happen anymore
That was before
No, I'm not, no, I'm not the same

I've feel stronger than you know
Strong and now I can do without you
The pity that you show

So don't mistake me for a fool
Made a mistake
My only problem was loving you
I'm stronger now

Used to cry and cry
Sit around and wait for you to dry my eyes
And I know you're thinking here we go again
Your broken heart that I have to mend

Gave you my lovin' every time you asked
Gave my heart held nothing back
Now I see that you couldn't handle that
Oh, how things have changed

Maybe it was that I was insecure
That won't happen anymore
That was before
No, I'm not, no, I'm not the same

I've feel stronger than you know
Strong and now I can do without you
The pity that you show

So don't mistake me for a fool
Made a mistake
My problem was loving you
I'm stronger now

Oh, you know I used to love you
But oh, my friend, I can live without you
Don't need your sympathy
I'm letting you go free

It used to be so predictable
So innocent and so simple
I can tell that you're surprised
I'm someone you don't recognize

I've feel stronger than you know
Strong and now I can do without you
The pity that you show

So don't mistake me for a fool
Made a mistake
My problem was loving you

I've feel stronger than you know
Strong and now I can do without you
The pity that you show

But don't mistake me for a fool
Made a mistake
My problem was loving you
I'm stronger now
