Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is why I didn't wanna go and meet your mama
Why do guys always want you to go and meet their mamas?
I knew I shouldn't, I tried to make it stop
But you just couldn't, couldn't control your heart
But I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn't wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you
[Verse 2]
I didn't ever realize that I've never heard your voicemail
Until I broke it off and then you sent me straight to voicemail
I know that I'm confusing
I know this one feels personal, but please pick up the phone tonight 'cause I just need to hear your voice, and I (I know, I know, oh-oh)
[Chorus]
I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn't wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you
It's just not our turn
And boy, I know it burns
But this is why I didn't wanna get close to you
You never should've let me so close to you
[Verse 3]
Babe, you made me feel so safe
You made me change my ways, but you couldn't do the same
And I hate
That I lost my friend
I hate how we ended, I swear I'm not pretendin'
Look, you had your thangs
I had mine too
Got high off the love, high off the view
You had your drugs
I had my booze, but you got addicted
You had you some demons
You couldn't defeat them, I couldn't fix 'em, look
I just needed you to know that
[Chorus]
I knew that this would hurt
This is why I didn't wanna get close to you
Why I didn't wanna get close to you
It's just not our turn, baby
And boy, I know it burns
But this is why I didn't wanna get close to you
You never should've let me so close to you
Oh, I hate it when you say
[Bridge]
I wasted all my love on you
I'm so sorry, boy
I wasted all my love on you
I wasted all my love on you
Wasted all my love on you, oh-whoa
I wasted all my love on you, yeah
This is why I didn't, oh
Wasted all my love on you
This is why I didn't wanna meet your mama
Wasted all my love on you
I anticipated all this drama
Wasted all my love on you
Oh-oh
I wasted all my love on you
[Outro]
I told you not to
But I'm still sorry, boy (Whoa-oh)
Oh-mm, mm-mm
