lyrics
Please don't give me lies, give me sugar
Been about an hour, I called, I know you check that
No call or a text back, wonder where your heart's been left at
I regret that I cheated on you so if you get back, I'd expect that, but I respect
When you deal with infidelity it's hard to connect back
Still I worked hard, didn't let that keep from my part and apart from the setbacks I really thought that it was better now
The shoe is on the other foot and now it's you, the one that's stepping out,
I guess I used to do the letting down but now I'm feeling stupid and foolish
Trying to figure how we always go through this
And do you really want to find a resolution, all this mystery makes confusion
Will you go or stay it's confusing, Im feeling either way I'm losing
But I'd rather have your sugar to sink my sweet tooth in
[chorus]
You looked me in my eyes and lied
I knew there'd be a day I'd find the real reason our hearts ain't align
The season that your heart changed mine there's a reason our hearts can't find no love for lusting
Guess I was dumb for trusting
How did our love malfunction?
'Cause I gave you my all, you crushed it
Tried to slow it down, you rushed it
Crashed too fast in the mass destruction while trying to mask my reluctance
'Cause you had me wondering, we both had past of suffering
I felt we crossed paths for something
It wouldn't hurt this bad for nothing
I swear I'm leaving ... nah I'm bluffing
Girl we need to talk over dinner or lunch and work through this
Give me truth no lies, substitutions
Give me sugar, no lies or illusions
Don't want this to end but I won't pretend
Please don't give me lies, gimme sugar
Don't want this to end, but I won't pretend
If your love is real whisper in my ear, show me what you feel
Oh, I can't take it anymore, girl I gotta know for sure
Tell me - are you gonna stay or go?
