How many times
Are you gonna apologize?
About the same thing
And how many times
Can I take you back?
When I'm not the one that's doing wrong
I thought maybe If I started praying
Then we would get better but
When I would pray, the answer would always come
Back to me, being done
But we're so hard headed
When we're in love

So I

[Chorus]
I told myself
That I would make some changes
But the more I change
There's one thing that remains the same
I can't seem to shake ya
You seem to really have a hold on me

And every time that we break up
We turn around and make up
This can't go on now
I've gotta move on now
Its not the fact
That I don't love you no more
But I've got to break this bad habit
Can't take this bad habit no more

I'm totally out of my element
I'm learning new ways to live
While you're in a comfort zone
Not even thinkin' (gotta think about me)
To call me when I get mad you buy me gifts
Thinkin' its gonna solve every issue

From the girl callin' my phone
To the pictures that I saw
And every time you would break up with me
For nothing at all
I've taken all I can take
(I've taken all I can take)
But the way I live has gotta change
Oh

[Chorus]

And bring it down

Have you ever loved somebody?
So much that you was just too blind to see
Oh yes!
All of the pain, that they was causing you (causing you)
Ladies, do you feel me? (do you feel me?)

Have you ever loved somebody?
So much that you went against the right thing that you should do
Oh, oh
Then its time to make a change (time to make a change)

[Chorus]
