[Verse 1]
It’s funny that you wanna flee
Without no judgment — when you was judgin’ me
You turned your back like love was nothin’ to you
Now I’m left here unlearning what I thought was true
⸻
[Chorus]
I gotta stop thinkin’ it’s somethin’ that I didn’t do
As if I didn’t love you
It was never gonna work with you
‘Cause you didn’t want it to
I kept pourin’ out my heart just to prove my truth
You kept runnin’ from the love I gave to you
was holdin’ on, but you already knew
It was never gonna work — not with you
⸻
[Verse 2]
I kept forgivin’ things I shouldn’t let slide
Lost myself tryna keep you satisfied
Blamed my heart for all your distance too
But I see now — that was all on you
⸻
[Chorus]
I gotta stop thinkin’ it’s somethin’ that I didn’t do
As if I didn’t love you
It was never gonna work with you
‘Cause you didn’t want it to
I kept pourin’ out my heart just to prove my truth
You kept runnin’ from the love I gave to you
was holdin’ on, but you already knew
It was never gonna work — not with you
[Bridge]
I gave you every piece of me, still you couldn’t see
Love don’t grow where there’s no honesty
I broke myself tryna fix what’s broken in you
But I’m done takin’ blame for what you couldn’t do
You said forever, but your heart was halfway gone
I begged for truth, but you just led me on
Now I’m standin’ tall in the pain you put me through
‘Cause I finally see — it was never me, it was you
I gotta stop thinkin’ it’s somethin’ that I didn’t do…
(Yeah-yeah, no, no…)
As if I didn’t love you…
(You know I did, you know I did…)
(Beat drops / full band swell)
It was never gonna work with you-oooh
‘Cause you didn’t want it to, no-oo
I kept pourin’ out my heart just to prove my truth
(Ohhh I gave it all to you…)
You kept runnin’ from the love I gave to you
(You kept runnin’, baby, yeah-yeah-yeah…)
Now I’m lettin’ go, I’m startin’ new
(No more tears, no more you…)
No more cryin’ over what you put me through
(I made it, I made it through…)
I was holdin’ on, but I made it through
Yeah, I made it through…
It was never gonna work — not with you
(Ad-lib outro)
Ooh-ohh… not with you-uu
It was never, never, never gonna work with you
Saquii
