How many times
Are you going to apologize about the same thing
And how many times can I take it back
When I'm not the one that's doing wrong
(when I'm not the one that's doing wrong no)
I thought that maybe if I started praying
That we would get better but
When I would pray the answer would always come back to me being done
But we are so hardheaded when we're in love
So I

[Chorus:]
I told myself that I would make some changes
(yeah)
But the more I change
There's one thing that remains the same
(remains the same)
I can't seem to shake you (shake you)
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 got to move on now
It's not the fact that I don't love you no more
But I got to break this bad habit
Can't take this bad habit no more

I'm totally out of my element
Learning new ways to live
While you're in a comfort zone
Not even thinking (you couldn't think about me)
To call me, when I get mad you're buying me gifts thinking it's going to solve every issue
From the girl calling my phone(phone)
To the pictures that I saw(you know what 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 got to change

[Chorus:]

Let me break it down
Have you ever loved somebody?
So much that you was just too blind to see, past
All of the pain they was causing you
Ladies do you feel me (do you feel me)
Have you ever loved somebody?
So much that you went against the right things
That you should do
Then it's time to make a change
So I

[Chorus:]
