Something told me inside That your love was untrue Something told me inside Something told me inside You said, "Girl, it's alright I would never hurt you" You said, "Girl, it's alright" He said, "Girl, it's alright" Just to be by your side I would've walked through the flames Just to be by your side Just to be by your side Now it hurts me inside Just to hear your name Just to hear your name I learned the hard way That your love is cruel I learned the hard way, baby Not to be your fool I learned the hard way I learned the hard way about you Now I know about you Now I know about you When I open my eyes It was all around me When I open my eyes When I open my eyes Clouds of perfume and lies And a hotel key Clouds of perfume and lies Clouds of perfume and lies And when I answered your phone I heard a gasp and a click When I answered your phone When I answered your phone Ooh, was that wrong number, wrong Or was she after your love Just to be by your side I would walk through the flames Now it hurts me inside Just to hear your name I learned the hard way That your love is cruel I learned the hard way, baby Not to be your fool I learned the hard way I learned the hard way about you Now I know about you Now I know about you Now I know about you Now I know about you Now I know about you Now I know about you Just to be by your side I would walk through the flames Now it hurts me inside Just to hear your name I learned the hard way That your love is cruel I learned the hard way, baby Not to be your fool I learned the hard way Well, I learned the hard way, baby, about you (I learned the hard way, baby) Now I know about you (Now I know about you) I know about you (Now I know about you) Now I know about you (Now I know about you) Now I know about you (Now I know about you) Now I know about you (Now I know about you) I won't be your fool (Now I know about you) Listen, I know about you (Now I know about you) Your love (Now I know about you) I wanna go home (Now I know about you) I know about you (Now I know about you) I said, "I wanna go home"
