Chorus:
Girl I gotta go, I can't stay
Said things would change
but things are still the same

Girl I gotta go, can't stay
Stay together puttin my front on
I'd rather be on my own

Verse 1
When we first met, things were fine
We out to dine
We strolled the beach
Holdin hands
Sharin quality time
What happened betwenn then and now
The love we shared
We lost some how

Background:
My friends try to tell me
Dave:
That we're mmovin too fast
but how was i to know
the feelings would past
It wouldn't last
I should've left a long time ago
But i stayed to see
Hopin and prayin you'd still love me

Chorus
Girl I gotta go, I can't stay
Said things would change
but things are still the same

Girl I gotta go, can't stay
Stay together puttin my front on
I'd rather be on my own

Verse 2:
I took you in
Treated your children as mine
Then we laid and made love
And you had my son
With our precious time
I did all that I could to get through to you
To let you know, girl it's you I was livin for

Background:
But you let your mind play games on you
Whenever I'm not around
Ya think that I don't know
That you're passin time with the guy next door
I gave you all that I had
You didn't love me one ounce
So like a basketball
I gotta bounce

Chorus
Girl I gotta go, I can't stay
Said things would change
but things are still the same

Girl I gotta go, can't stay
Stay together puttin my front on
I'd rather be on my own

Background:
Ah Ah Ah Ah

Dave:
Baby can you tell me
Where I, went wrong
All I ever wanted baby baby babe
Was a happy home (Background: Oh)

I can call my own (Background: Oh)
I can't take no more (Background: No doubt)

So I'm tellin you bye bye bye bye bye

Chorus
Girl I gotta go, I can't stay
Said things would change
but things are still the same

Girl I gotta go, can't stay
Stay together puttin my front on
I'd rather be on my own
