Lyrics by Petra Deeter
[Verse 1]
I need a man who chooses to stay in my life
Who’ll be there for me without thinking twice
One who knows honesty is always right
Who is committed and fully mine every night
[Chorus]
You said you love me, but your actions donโt show
You wonโt love me right, yet you wonโt let me go
Every time I needed you, you were a no-show
You said you were ready, but your thoughts don’t flow
Baby, thoughts just donโt count, no no no
[Verse 2]
Stop dragging me along with empty promises and wasting my time
You think youโre so smooth, but I see through the lies
Iโm tired of the pain, itโs time to say goodbye
So let me go, cut this tie, and get out of my life
[Bridge]
I gave you my heart, my soul, my everything
But all I got in return was pain and suffering
Now I see the truth, the reality of your game
I deserve better, I wonโt live in this shame
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
I should have known better, I saw the warning signs
But I kept charging on, like a bull in a fight
No more getting triggered by the red flags you wave
Iโm done with the matadorโs game, Iโm breaking away
[Verse 4]
I need a love thatโs true, a love thatโs pure
Not one thatโs built on lies, I need something sure
A man whoโll hold me tight, and never let me go
One whoโll stand by my side, and let his feelings show
[Chorus]
[Verse 5]
I’ve learned my lesson now, I know my worth
The value of the woman I am, my spirit is true north
I have so much to give, and the right man will see
He’ll know he’s found a treasure and truly appreciate me
[Chorus]
[Outro]
So Iโm walking away, leaving you behind
Gonna find a man whoโs loving and kind
No more tears, no more sleepless nights
Iโm moving on to better, to brighter lights
