You Called and Told Me Lyrics
Hey! What's happening baby?
Aw you're calling me again
Telling me you want to leave me?
Girl, you don't want to leave me
Because you love me baby
And you know I love you too
[Hook]
You called and told me
That you wanted to leave
But it seems
That you don't want to leave me
[Verse 1]
Listen
We were so happy together
When we first met
But you started acting crazy
Oh baby, what's happening?
[Pre-Hook]
'Cause all my love
Is what I'm giving
If you want games
Well I'm not playing
Let me know if you want to leave
Now baby, please don't call me with your lies
[Hook]
You called and told me
That you wanted to leave
But it seems
That you don't
Want to leave me
[Verse 2]
I'm sorry that you're feeling this way
You know I'm not to blame (Baby I'm not to blame, no, no)
But that's you keeps on running
And playing those simple games (Stop playing those simple games)
[Pre-Hook]
Leaving me, you never can let go
And mistreating me, no-no-no-no-no
Let me know (If you want to leave)
But baby, please stop calling me with your lies
[Hook]
You called and told me
That you wanted to leave (You called me and told me)
But it seems
That you don't
Want to leave me (But it seems that you don't really want to leave me)
Oh!
You're so outstanding
I don't ever want you to leave me
[Pre-Hook]
Leaving me (Leaving)
Oh, you can't let go
Mistreating me, no, no, no, no
Let me know (If you want to leave)
Baby, please just stop calling me with your lies
[Hook]
You called and told me
That you wanted to leave (Baby, hey)
But it seems
That you don't
Want to leave me (But it don't really seem that you want to leave me, ooh yeah)
You keep on running from me
I don't understand it
'Cause you love me and I love you
So don't leave me
[Hook]
You called and told me
That you wanted to leave (And I know you won't leave me, girl)
But it seems
That you don't
Want to leave me (You can't leave me, baby)
(You called me and you told me that you wanted me to be your man)
(Repeat until fade)
