Lyrics

Everything you said to me, I took to heart

Boy that you never knew someday we'd part

Wanna be a player, see, wanna mess around on me

Every night you hit the streets, shoulda took care of family

All I do (All I do is)

Is lie in my bed (Is lie in my bed)

Lonely at night (Late at night)

It ain't right (That's why I gotta say goodbye)

Seven long years (Seven)

Nothing but tears (Nothing but tears)

Baby, I'm gone (Baby, I'm gone)

Won't see me no more (Won't see me no more)

Seven long years (I'm out the door)

Nothing but tears (Nothing but tears)

Baby, I'm gone (Gone)

Won't see me no more (You won't see me around anymore)

Say I wanna get down with you

You say you don't feel so well

Said you worked that double shift

My heart feels something else

So I went and checked it out

'Cause last week you said the same

Called up the Drake Hotel

You was under your middle name

All I do (All I do is)

Is lie in my bed (Lie there in my bed)

Lonely at night (Waiting on you)

It ain't right (To come home to me)

Seven long years (Seven long years)

Nothing but tears (Given me nothing but tears)

Baby, I'm gone (So I'm outta here)

Won't see me no more (You won't see me anymore)

Seven long years (Seven)

Nothing but tears (Nothing but tears)

Baby, I'm gone (Said I'm gone)

Won't see me no more (And you won't see me around no more)

Baby, anything you do to me I've already done to you

(Already done to you)

And there's nothing you can say

And there's nothing you can do

Seven long years (Seven long years)

Nothing but tears (Nothing but tears)

Baby, I'm gone (I'm gone)

Won't see me no more (See, I deserve better)

Seven long years (Seven)

Nothing but tears (Said I'm crying all the time)

Baby, I'm gone (Now I'm gone)

Won't see me no more (You won't see me no more)

Seven long years (See, I never really stopped loving you)

Nothing but tears (I just got tired of putting up with your mess)

Baby, I'm gone (Been your fool, seven years)

Won't see me no more

(I tell ya, this move is something I won't regret, mhm)

Seven long years (You can save the drama)

Nothing but tears (You might as well run on back to your baby's mama)

Baby, I'm gone ('Cause by the time you wake up)

Won't see me no more (I'll be long gone, yes, I will)

Seven long years (Seven years of my life)

Nothing but tears (All I did was sacrifice)

Baby, I'm gone (Now I'm out the door)

Won't see me no more (You won't see me no more)

Seven long years (Seven years)

Nothing but tears (Nothing but tears)

Baby, I'm gone (Now I'm gone)

Won't see me no more (You won't see me no more)

Seven long years (True stories)

Nothing but tears

Baby, I'm gone

Won't see me no more

Seven long years

Nothing but tears

Baby, I'm gone

Won't see me no more
