Yeah, uh
This right here, this right here is for all the shorties
To all the girls in the past that ever did me wrong
It's a shame but you played so it didn't last long
For all the tears that I shed, girl, this is your song
Even though you let me down, I had to be strong, uh
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
Sit back and relax, grab a chair
As I talk about love because Ive had my share
Of many situations and things that I've been through
Stuff in my past that I know you could get into
This ain't no dang fairy tale, but it's true
So I guess I got a story to tell, (come on)
Once upon a time I was at my job
It's just another day, yo, I'm on my grind
And then I saw this woman, she caught my eye
Yeah, little did I know she would change my life
She feel me too, I'm feeling cool to put it down on her
I got the number, let's meet up, so check the calendar
First night out of work and we met for dinner
I can't lie, she looked fly like I found a winner
I couldn't get my mind off her, this connection is strong
We would talk on the phone like all day long
I said I'm from Bridgetown, she feelin' the lingo
Baby girl was off the 10, she from San Bernardino
She had a thing for street guys, dysfunctional men
I'm just a 9 to 5 guy, I gotta hustle to win
But day and night I get lonely too
I just want a good woman I can come home to
And true that, yo, I think that you the one for me
But little did I know, it was way too deep
To all the girls in the past that ever did me wrong
It's a shame, but you played, so it didn't last long
For all the tears that I shed, girl, this is your song
Even though you let me down, I had to be strong, uh
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
I can't lie, this next verse probably hit me the worst
I thought you gave me a chance, but all I got was hurt
Givin' up on my feelings, I wanna shut down
When I met baby girl, I just felt so proud
Because she gave me the place, and then she gave me the time
Because I'm feelin' safe inside, but it was all in my mind
Damn, I thought you was for real when my heart was numb
For the very first time, I thought I met the one
She disappeared from my life without sayin' goodbye
No text or phone call, it ate me up inside
And all that I was left with was all these different questions
I'm guessin' she probably went back with her ex
From what she told me, she said the man was possessive
And all that I could give her was all of my suggestions
Suggestin' she didn't have to stay with all the Stressin'
Hopin' she could see what we had was a blessing
Blessings don't matter when it comes to emotions
A slave to the game, she would rather be broken
And as I reminisce, how did I never notice
The signs from the start, I was caught up in the moment
Damn
To all the girls in the past that ever did me wrong
It's a shame, but you played, so it didn't last long
For all the tears that I shed, girl, this is your song
Even though you let me down, I had to be strong, uh
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
To all the girls in the past that ever did me wrong
It's a shame, but you played, so it didn't last long
For all the tears that I shed, girl, this is your song
Even though you let me down, I had to be strong, uh
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
Don't wanna live life alone, but I don't wanna get my heart broke
Don't wanna get my heart broke
Heart broke
Mm, mm, mm
