Lover, lover, I loved you baby, and only you
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, why can't you be true
Now you can have that other man
Cause I'm through with you. Can't you understand
I've always been so nice to you
All you were was mean and cruel
You used to be so sweet and kind
With all your charm, I was so blind
You cheated me, then I cheated you
I must go on without you
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, why can't you be true
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, and only you
When I met you, happiness came. It was a love, not a game
How was I to know you lied to me. It wasn't meant to be
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, and only you
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, why can't you be true
When you left my side, I stayed at home
Oh how I cried. I stayed alone
I said some things I shouldn't have said
If you were here, I'd die instead
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, and only you
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, why can't you be true
When you left me, I fell apart. All you left was my broken heart
Please believe me, I loved you so. So now, I have to go
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, and only you
Lover, lover, I loved you baby, why can't you be true
