Well, I drifted to the sight of a dove
Let it fly right in really just because
It seemed easy, it felt simple and fun
To have someone you pretend to want
But see, well, my mama told me
"You should know better than this"
See, the problem is
My baby loves me like he's supposed to
My baby loves me, but it ain't no use
I tried to warn him, tried to want him too
But now he loves me, he thinks he loves me
Well, I really should've known from the start
You should never mess with two lonely hearts
'Cause it really was quite easy to see
That I'm no good for him, he's no good for me
But I thought, "What could be better? It's just a little pleasure
Someone to have there by your side"
Well, I really should've told him, yes, I should've warned him
I'd leave in just a matter of time
But see, well, I thought he knew this
I thought he knew I'd be gone
But I really was wrong
My baby loves me like he's supposed to
My baby loves me, but it ain't no use
I tried to warn him, tried to want him too
But now he loves me, he thinks he loves me
When I go out, he goes out
If I leave, he will shout
If I say I have doubts
Still he'll never figure out
If it's wrong, he don't care
He can't leave 'cause he's scared
No, he won't, no, he won't go
My baby loves me like he's supposed to
My baby loves me, but it ain't no use
I tried to warn him, tried to want him too
But now he loves me, he thinks he loves me
Ah
Oh, I think he loves me, mmm, I think he loves me
