  • I gave it all to you
    With no questions asked
    I wanted a future
    Who cares 'bout the past?
    That first argument
    You up and left (up and left)
    I seen a change in you (change in you)
    Words I won't accept
    I thought I lost you
    When you twist back my arm
    'Cause the man I thought I knew
    Wouldn't do me no harm (no harm)
    And that ran through my mind, over again (over again)
    I promised myself you wouldn't put your hands on me again
    Never no more (hey)

    I didn't sleep that night
    I held my pillow tight
    Now trust me when I say
    You have been told
    I'm telling you never to touch me no more
    Never no more

    I should've left you
    When you called me out my name (out my name)
    I stooped to your level
    Replied you the same
    Now here we are again (again)
    You at my throat
    Now I see the same old change (same old change)
    That I did before
    I walk away from you
    At the drop of a dime
    Saw that this treatment
    Is way out of line
    And that ran through my mind, over and over again (over again)
    Promised my self you wouldn't put your hands on my again
    Never no more (never)

    You know I rather give you space
    'Cause I just don't know
    What to or not to say
    Stay out your way or get in your face
    I just know you better not touch me again
    Or I'll (or I'll) walk away
    That is one game I refuse to play

    Oh, I didn't sleep that night (at night, yeah)
    I held my pillow tight (tight)
    Now trust me when I say (say)
    You have been told
    I'm telling you never to touch me no more
    Never no more
