Long Way From Loving You

You love me, you leave me
You're trying to deceive me
Then you want me back again
I know every trick in this game you’re playin’
You use me, abuse me
You think you’ll never lose me
Your evil ways will never mend
And I don’t trust a single word you're sayin’
Now you’re back, knocking on my door
Wearing those same old shoes
But I’m a long way, long way from loving you
You bruise me, you hurt me
Friday night you go and desert me
Laugh about it with your friends
All the time you’re talking sweet
I know you’re just lying
You kiss me, dismiss me
When I’m gone you say you don't even miss me
You think you’ll fool me again
You know this time it’s you who’s gonna be crying
Well I’m taking out the trash now Baby
Just like yesterday’s news
‘Cause I’m a long way, long way from loving you
Once you had me blind
But now I see, I see what you’ve doing to me
Once you had my heart in chains
But now I’ve, now I've broken free!
I’m gonna turn around and walk away
You know I ain’t crying
No I ain’t crying!
Every minute that I spend with you
Feels like a little piece of me,
A little piece of me is dying!
You use me, abuse me
Your evil ways will never mend
So now you’re back, knocking on my door
Wearing those same old shoes
But I’m a long way, long way,
From loving you
From loving you
