When you call she doesn't answer, when you write she doesn't answer
You go out you see him with her, she told you she was sick at home
The ring you gave her thrown away with all the letters
And when you see him with her, he doesn't even care at all
And she follows him around like you follow her around
And he doesn't even care and your figuring out
The only way your gonna keep somebody around
Well I'm about to let you know
refrain:
There's something I don't really understand
The only way a woman's gonna want a man
The only way you'll ever keep her in your hands
Is breakin apart her heart
Don't tell her she's the reason that you live
Don't give her anything that you've got to give
If you wanna keep the girl for as long as you live
Just breakin apart her heart
Can't you see the way she's crying, well that's what keeps her trying
She knew that she could have you, and he don't give her what she wants
There's truth about this, you say you wanna be noticed
Well if you wanna be noticed, you've gotta learn to break some hearts
Don't try to understand
refrain
Can you see what you've done?
What I've become, what I've become
Can you see?
Can you see?
I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand but now I see
refrain
I don't understand this cruelty
I don't understand it's just not me
I don't understand this cruelty
But now I see
