Lyrics

[Verse 1]
MMM I LOVE YOU BABY
BUT YOU DONE ME WRONG
I kept your name in my mouth
Way too long
I gave you my best
You gave me a wound
Now I’m staring at the frame
In an empty room

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to call it love
I tried to make it stay
But every little promise
Kept fading away
So don’t ask me why
My heart won’t beg no more
I heard enough tonight
When you walked out the door

[Chorus]
MMM I LOVE YOU BABY
BUT YOU DONE ME WRONG
MMM I LOVE YOU BABY
I can’t hold on
I thought you were the man for me
I thought you were the one
Now I need to move on
Now I need to move on

[Verse 2]
Your jacket on the chair
Your glass by the sink
The house still knows your footsteps
More than I think
But I won’t wait by the phone
Won’t read that old text
I’m taking back my peace
From what you left

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to call it love
I tried to make it stay
But every little promise
Kept fading away
So don’t ask me why
My heart won’t beg no more
I heard enough tonight
When you walked out the door

[Chorus]
MMM I LOVE YOU BABY
BUT YOU DONE ME WRONG
MMM I LOVE YOU BABY
I can’t hold on
I thought you were the man for me
I thought you were the one
Now I need to move on
Now I need to move on

[Bridge]
Maybe one day I’ll smile
When I say your name
Maybe I’ll thank the hurt
For showing me the way
But tonight I choose myself
I choose the open road
I’m not your afterthought
I’m letting go

[Final Chorus]
MMM I LOVE YOU BABY
BUT YOU DONE ME WRONG
MMM I LOVE YOU BABY
I can’t hold on
I thought you were the man for me
I thought you were the one
Now I need to move on
Now I need to move on
