[Intro]
Oh, hey, mmm

[Verse 1]
Every girl's gotta go through it
And every man's gotta go through it
It's this thing called love, mmm
Listen to me now, listen to me
I still remember the day that you said you was a bad boy
Man, I shoulda listened when you said you was a bad boy
(Bad boy)
You took control of me
I thought you would change for me
Everything's different now, reminiscing ain't the same, boy
(Same, boy)
How I let you come and hurt me like this, boy (This, boy)
I'm open now
I wanna get away
But you're forcing me to stay

[Chorus]
Love, I thought you had my back this time (This time)
But man, I'm wrong this time (This time)
It's a thing called (Thought you had my back)
Love, I thought you had my back this time (This time)
But man, I'm wrong this time
It's a thing called love
[Verse 2]
I loved you for your ways
But your ways hurt me bad, boy
Hurt me so bad, why you wanna see me sad, boy?
I'm tired of crying over you
But I miss you so much, I don't know what to do
Seems that I gotta move on
Live life without ya
But every time someone comes around to talk about you
I get feelings inside again
I wanna be right back by your side again, oh

[Chorus]
Love (Oh-oh), I thought you had my back this time (Oh)
But man, I'm wrong this time
It's a thing called (Thought you had my back)
Love (Love), I thought you had my back this time (This time)
But man, I'm wrong this time (Ooh)
It's a thing called love (Ooh)

[Breakdown]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You got me, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You got me
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You got me, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And I don't know what to do
(Ooh, yeah) I thought you had my back
I'm so wrong, I'm so wrong
[Bridge]
Love, love
Open up my heart, love so long, I love you so much I
(Want you in my back)
Yeah, it's all good though
Sometimes in life, you know, situations come your way
You just gotta make good decisions, man (Love)
You know, you gotta know your focus in life
(I thought you had my back this time, but I'm wrong this time)
And if love is your focus
Then man, pay attention

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You got me, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh (Ooh)
Hey, yeah
Love
(I thought you had my back this time, but I'm wrong this time)
I am so stuck right here
Oh, oh-oh, love
