You say that you're leaving   but I've heard those words before   And I won't play these games   You say that your reason   is life has got to offer more   And every day's the same   and I do feel offended   Why don't you just say   what you really mean   Or...      [Chorus]   Shut up, you don't love me, baby   Cause if you did, if you did   I would know   Shut up, you don't love me, baby   Cause if you did, if you did   then it would show   Shut up, you don't love me, baby   Cause if you did, if you did   you wouldn't go      The days go by slowly   each more painful than the last   I try to understand    I got my defenses   up so high it's sad, but I   have always had a man   And I guess that it's over   So...      [Chorus]      I saved you, boy   You know I did   I took your crooked life   and I straightened it for you   I held you up so very high   And you can't take back what you said   It's real this time      [Chorus 3x]
