Lyrics
Weren’t you the one that said that you don’t want me an y more, and how you need your space, and give the key back to your door?
And how I cried and tried and tried to make you stay with me.
But still you said that love was gone and that you I had to leave.
(Now (Dm)you)
talk in’ ’bout a fam i ly.
(Now (A)you)
say in’ I com (Dm)plete your dream.
(Now you)
say in’ I’m your (Dm)ev ’ry thing.
You’re con fus ing me, what you say to me.
Don’t play with me, don’t play with me.
’Cause (Dm)(What goes a (C)round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) Now who’s cry in,’ de sir in’ to come back to me?
(C)(What goes a round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) Now who’s cry in,’ de sir in’ to come back?
(CN.C.)I re mem ber when I was sit tin’ home a lone, wait in’ for you ’til three o’ clock in the morn.
And when you came home you’d al ways have some sor ry ex cuse, and ex plain in’ to me, like I’m just some kind of a fool.
I sac ri ficed the things I want ed to do things for you.
But when it’s time to do for me, and that you nev er come through.
(Now (Dm)you)
wan na be a part of me.
(Now (A)you)
have so much to (Dm)say to me.
(Now you)
wan na make your (Dm)time for me.
What you do to me, you’re con fus in’ me.
Don’t play with me, don’t play with me.
’Cause (Dm)(What goes a (C)round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) Now who’s cry in,’ de sir in’ to come back to me?
(C)(What goes a round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) Now who’s cry in,’ de sir in’ to come back?
(CN.C.)I re mem ber when I was sit tin’ home a lone, wait in’ for you ’til three o’ clock in the morn.
(Gm9)I re mem ber when I was sit tin’ home a lone, wait in’ for you ’til three o’ clock in the morn, night af ter night, know in’ some thin’ go in’ on.
Was n’t home be fore I be go in’, go in’ gone.
Lord knows, it was n’t eas y, be lieve me.
Nev er thought you’d be the one that would de ceive me and nev er do what you sup posed to do.
No need to hose me, fool, ’cause I’m o ver you.
’Cause (Dm)(What goes a (C)round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) Now who’s cry in,’ de sir in’ to come back to me?
(C)(What goes a round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) Got ta stop try in’
to come back to me.
(Dm)(What goes a (C)round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) It’s called kar ma, ba by, and it goes back a round.
(C)(What goes a round comes a (Dm)round; what goes (C)up must come (Dm)down.) Got ta stop try in’
to come back to me.
(Dm)down.) Now who’s cry in,’ de sir in’ to come back to me?
