It's like thunder and lightning You hurt me without trying A tempest, you was rising And no I don't like to be this way And you're Jekyll and Hyde-ing Are you real or are you lying? So stop with your crying I can't handle it now You tell everyone our love went cold Going 'round, spreading the word, it's over If that's how you feel then you should go Don't come around saying, "I still want you" One minute you say we're a team Then you're telling me you can't breathe Well you should set me free Baby, if you're over me Yesterday you said I'm the one But now you say you're done Stop telling me what I need Baby, if you're over me There you go, there, I said it Don't look at me all offended You played games and it ended I've got to look out for me I won't say that it's easy Oh, I know I hate leaving But you can't keep deceiving Does it make you feel good? You tell everyone our love went cold Going around, spreading the word, it's over If that's how you feel then you should go Don't come around saying, "I still want you" One minute you say we're a team Then you're telling me you can't breathe Well you should set me free Baby, if you're over me Yesterday you said I'm the one But now you say you're done Stop telling me what I need Baby, if you're over me If you're over me If you're over me Stop telling me what I need Baby, if you're over me How long can a love remain? Time never could heal this pain I thought I believed in fate Oh, it's so cruel No, nothing for us would change Same story, the same mistake This heart just wants to break Oh, one minute you say we're a team Then you're telling me you can't breathe (can't breathe) Well you should set me free Baby, if you're over me Yesterday you said I'm the one But now you say you're done Stop telling me what I need (telling me what I need) Baby, if you're over me Just go if it's over (just go) Just go if it's over (just go if it's over) Just go if it's over Baby, if you're over me Just go if it's over (just go) Just go if it's over (just go if it's over) Just go if it's over Baby, if you're over me
