[Verse 1] I know I do some things that make you so confused One minute I'm so in love and the next I can't stand you But if you may ask it's just some things that you do That reminds me of all of the mess that I've been through [Chorus] All of this baggage with me Don't wanna make you pay for what Somebody else has done to me I don't know what to do With all this baggage in me Every time I hurt your feelings (Every time I hurt your feelings) It's what someone's done to me (Didn't mean to hurt you, babe) I don’t mean to hurt you [Verse 2] Heartache and pain, I just can't do it again So I look for the worst and brace myself for the hurt But nobody has ever treated me this way Please be patient with me 'cause I want you to stay But I got baggage [Chorus] All of this baggage with me Don't wanna make you pay for what Somebody else has done to me I don't know what to do (I don't know what to do) With all this baggage in me (With all this baggage) Every time I hurt your feelings It's what someone’s done to me (I never meant to hurt you, babe) I don't mean to hurt you All of this baggage with me Don't wanna make you pay for what Somebody else has done to me I don't know what to do (I don't know what to do) With all this baggage in me Every time I hurt your feelings (Every time I hurt your feelings, boy) It's what someone's done to me (I don't really mean it, no, no, no) I don't mean to hurt you [Bridge] This is no way to be livin' my life (It's no way for me to live) But I can’t get it out of my mind (Can't get it out of my mind) You know I love you, yes I do (You know I love you, baby) So don't go and get it twisted [Verse 3] Don't be confused 'cause, boy, you know I really do love you (Oh) I want you to stay with me, I never meant to hurt you, baby (Oh) It won't be easy getting rid of all this baggage, see All this baggage, yeah [Chorus] All of this baggage with me Don't wanna make you pay for what (Don't wanna make you pay) Somebody else has done to me I don't know what to do (Don't know what to do) With all this baggage in me Every time I hurt your feelings It's what someone's done to me (Every time I hurt your feelings) I don't mean to hurt you (Never meant to hurt you) All of this baggage with me Don't wanna make you pay for what (So much baggage) Somebody else has done to me (What somebody else has done to me) I don't know what to do With all this baggage in me Every time I hurt your feelings It's what someone's done to me I don't mean to hurt you All of this baggage with me Don't wanna make you pay for what Somebody else has done to me I don't know what to do With all this baggage in me
