Have Mercy

[Verse 1]
He made me feel so second-best
I never should have let him do it
But when he makes his pretty mess
Somehow you just fall into it

[Chorus]
Have mercy on him
The love that I gave him is gone
Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone

[Verse 2]
He wasn't just another touch
He was something I created
And though I loved him much too much
I never thought my love was wasted

[Chorus]
Have mercy on him
The love that I gave him is gone
Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone

[Verse 3]
How do you know who you should blame?
You spend your love, or you conserve it
It's hard to hear him curse my name
At least I know I don't deserve it

[Chorus]
Have mercy on him
The love that I gave him is gone
Have mercy on him
The love that I saved for him is gone

[Outro]
The love that I had saved for him is gone
