Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby, exchangin' for no use, I need to
Some right back and be alone again
Baby, I didn't need the use out of him
Didn't come with no tag or warranty
[Verse 2]
(There's no one) That I adore more than your love, it hurts me more
(To let you have) In again
(There's no one) Who could ever show me love, wait till never
(Trust someone) Better than you, you
[Verse 3]
Should I take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
Take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
[Verse 4]
Don't wanna go through the same game again
He's no good and that's just it for me
Does it every time he returns, there's no use
I'll just be the one left in the end
[Verse 5]
(There's no one) That I adore more than your love, it hurts me more
(To let you have) In again
(There's no one) Who could ever show me love, wait till never
(Trust someone) Better than you, you
[Verse 6]
Should I take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
Take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
[Verse 7]
Should I take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
Take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
[Verse 8]
Don't wanna go through the same thing, many of it remains
Don't wanna go through the same game again
[Verse 9]
Should I take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
Take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
[Verse 10]
Should I take him back
[Verse 11]
There's no one I adore, and you know it hurts me more
To let you back into my life, you ain't never treat me right
There's no one I adore, and you know it hurts me more
To let you back into my life, you ain't never treat me right
[Verse 12]
Should I take him back after what he did?
Hurt me in ways that I can't begin to replace
How I feel so I'll just go away
Take him back after what he did?
