Learn the Hard Way

Uh, uh, uh

Uh, uh, uh

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, oh-oh

It's a shame you had to learn the hard way

Now I have to take my love away

You see, I could've made it easy

For you to become a part of me

It's a shame you had to learn the hard way

Now I have to take my love away

You see, I could've made it easy

For you to become a part of me

Couldn't even say, "I'm sorry"

For all the hurt and pain you caused me

Now I am supposed to give my deepest sympathy, oh yeah

You see, I had enough of cryin'

And I am tired of all the lyin'

See, I refuse to let you take advantage of me, baby

It's a shame you had to learn the hard way (Ooh)

Now I have to take my love away (My love away)

You see, I could've made it easy (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

For you to become a part of me

When I took the time to think of

All the love that we have shared

I realized that most of the time

You were just not there, ooh

It was hard for me to see when

When your love was blindin' me

But now I know I have to let you

Go your separate way, ooh

'Cause things will never be the same

'Cause baby, baby you did me wrong

It hurt so bad, I can't move on

Was it worth all the pain?

'Cause baby, baby you got to pay

You got to learn the hard way

It's a shame you had to learn the hard way (It's a shame)

Now I have to take my love away (Ooh, ooh)

It's a shame you had to learn the hard way (You told me lies)

Now I have to take my love away (Treated me bad)

You see, I could've made it easy (All of the time)

For you to become a part of me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

It's a shame you had to learn the hard way (The hard way)

Now I have to take my love away (Take my love away)

You see, I could've made it easy (Made it easy, babe)
