They said you came
From the wrong side, baby
But I did not care
I wanted you
More than anybody, baby
So much love we could share
But now I hear
What they were sayin' to me
In the middle of love
It's so hard to see that...
He's not for me
He doesn't know my Savior
Not for me
Had to let him go, oh, no
He's not for me
He would only want to change me
Not for me, oh, no
Seems that I always
Have to learn my lessons
In the saddest ways
(Ooh-ooh-ooh...)
I get my heart
In the very worst positions
Hope I learn someday
Words that come
From a caring friend
Are only to save me
Heartache in the end, 'cause...
He's not for me
He doesn't know my Savior
Not for me
Had to let him go, oh, no
He's not for me
He would only want to change me
Not for me, oh, no
Not for me
Not for me
Why was I such a stubborn girl?
Now I can see we live
In different worlds, 'cause...
He's not for me
He doesn't know my Savior
Not for me
Had to let him go
Had to let that boy go
He's not for me
He would only want to change me
Not for me, oh, no, no
He's not for me
'Cause he doesn't know my Savior
Not for me
Had to let him go
Had to let him go
He's not for me
'Cause he would only want to change me
Not for me, oh, no, no
He's not for me
(He doesn't know her Savior)
He's not for me
(He had to let her go)
He's not for me
(He'd only want to change her)
Not for me, no, no, no
No, no, no
