Lyrics

I've spent all my life, on a search to find
The love who'll stay for eternity
The heaven sent to fulfill my needs
But when I turn around
Again, love has knocked me down
My heart got broken oh, it hurt so bad
I'm sad to say, love wins again
So I placed my heart under lock and key
To take some time, and take care of me
But I turn around and you're standing here
How did you get here?
Nobody's supposed to be here
I've tried that love thing for the last time
My heart says no, no
Nobody's supposed to be here
But you came along and changed my mind
This time I swear I'm through
But if only you knew
How many times I've said those words
Then fall again, when will I ever learn
Knowing these tears I cry
This lovely black butterfly
Must take a chance, and spread my wings
Love can make you do some crazy things
So I placed my heart under lock and key
To take some time, and take care of me
But I turn around and you're standing here
How did you? Standing here
How did you? Standing here
How did you get here?
No, nobody, no, no, no, no, no, no, ooh!
No, no, no
How did you get here?
Nobody's supposed to be here
I've tried that love thing for the last time
My heart says no, no
Nobody's supposed to be here
But you came along and changed my mind
How did you get here?
Nobody's supposed to be here
I've tried that love thing for the last time
My heart says no, no
Nobody's supposed to be here
But you came along and changed my mind, oh
