His Mistakes

Do I remind you of the pain that he put you through, girl?

Is that the reason I'm to blame, before I do it?

Is it because he treated you badly that I always stand accused?

Protecting yourself from somebody else

I'm not who's hurting you, girl

And it's killing me, girl, knowing you compare me to him

Always guilty before the sin, I can't win, I can't win, no

I'll do anything to prove I love you

Baby girl, but I refuse to pay for somethin' I didn't do

I love you, girl, but I refuse to stay

Paying for his mistakes

Yeah, oh yeah, yeah

He left a scar across your heart

I understand, girl

Don't let his wrongs tear us apart, no

'Cause, girl, I'm your man

Just because he did, you swear I'm cheatin'

You think I just don't care, yeah

Why must I do time for another man's crime?

Girl, you know that ain't fair, no, no

And it's killing me, girl, knowing you compare me to him

Always guilty before the sin, I can't win, no, I can't win

I'll do anything to prove I love you

Baby girl, but I refuse to pay for somethin' I didn't do

I love you, girl, but I refuse to stay

Paying for his mistakes

I know he did you wrong, but tell me

What does that have to do with me?

Tryin' to show you somethin' real

Figure out what is goin' on before you look up and I'll be gone, yeah

Oh, oh, mmh, mmh, yeah, hey yeah, oh

I'll do anything to prove I love you

Baby girl, but I refuse to pay for somethin' I didn't do, girl

I love you, and I love you, I love you

I'll do anything to prove I love you

Baby girl, but I refuse to pay for somethin' I didn't do, no

I love you, girl, but I refuse to stay

Paying for his mistakes
