money, cars, for a while
walked around with a smile but
deep inside i could hear
voices telling me this ain't right
don't u know its not for you
i always knew what i had to do
but its hard to get away
because i love you i just tried to stay
I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it (yes I did)
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it (oow yeah)
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And I know inside i'm gonna be alright (Im gonna be alright)
I said I couldn't do it but I did it (yes I did, baby)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh yeah)
though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright
Friends of mine say to me
They say you got control over me
you're not alone, I played a part
i saw the way you were from the start
Could I expect so much from you
You had a girl when I first met you
Did the best that you could do
Now I realize I can't change you
I used to say I couldn't do it but I did it
After telling everybody that I wasnt with it
Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And I know inside i'm gonna be alright (Im gonna be alright)
I said I couldn't do it but I did it (yes I have baby)
After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (ow yeah)
though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it
And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright
Said I wouldn't walk away
Somedays I want to stay
But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay
Never thought it would be true
Me livin' without you
But now it's time for me to make a move
