Mario Winans › Lyrics › Never Really Was

I just need to talk to you for a second
It won't take me long
I gotta get this off my chest
Listen

I'm really glad that you can take out time
'Cause I got a lot on my mind
I never thought that you would be the kind
To do the dirt and hang your head
Babygirl, won't you make me understand
Why you would say the things you said to me?
You made me believe, we would be forever
But it was all a lie

If it never really was what you seen in me
Why did you say you believed in me?
It's all because of you, my security
It's driving me crazy, baby
If it never really was what you had for me
Why did you say that you wanted me, needed me?
If it never really was what you meant for me
Tell me

Now I know I've asked you time and time again
Were you sure you didn't want another man?
I would have understood it back then
But you had to wait until I gave in
Now I know I've been a sucker for your love
Baby, tell me what the hell was I thinking of
I should have listened to them when they told me
But I learned the hard way

If it never really was what you seen in me
Why did you say you believed in me?
It's all because of you, my security
It's driving me crazy, baby
If it never really was what you had for me
Why did you say that you wanted me, needed me?
If it never really was what you meant for me
Tell me

Why would you play with my heart?
When I gave it all, it's tearing me apart, girl
All you had to do is say so
I would have let you go, you're making it so hard, girl
Why would you play with my heart?
When I gave it all, it's tearing me apart, girl
All you had to do is say so
I would have let you go, you're making it so hard, girl

If it never really was what you seen in me
Why did you say you believed in me?
It's all because of you, my security
It's driving me crazy, baby
If it never really was what you had for me
Why did you say that you wanted me, needed me?
If it never really was what you meant for me
Tell me

If it never really was what you seen in me
Why did you say you believed in me?
It's all because of you, my security
It's driving me crazy, baby
If it never really was what you had for me
Why did you say that you wanted me, needed me?
If it never really was what you meant for me
Tell me
