You Don't Love Me
Folly Rae Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you would fuck with my heart
All of the words you said
Just to get in my bed
And I was wasting so much time
Waiting on these tears to dry
Finally I realize
Look what you done, I'm moving on
You don't love me, you don't love me
So into you, but what is the use when
You don't love me, you don't love me?
You don't love me, you don't love me
You don't love me, you don't love me
I made a big mistake
I shoulda walked away
But I will keep running back
What kind of fool does that? Hmmm
And I was wasting so much time
Waiting on these tears to dry
Finally I realize
I got to get you out my life
Look what you done, I'm moving on
You don't love me, you don't love me
So into you but what is the use when
You don't love me, you don't love me?
You don't love me, you don't love me
You don't love me, you don't love me
Time after time you break my heart again
You don't love me, you don't love me
But I, I won't cry, I'm so over it
You don't love me, you don't love me
Look what you done, I'm moving on
You don't love me, you don't love me
So into you, but what is the use when
You don't love me, you don't love me?
You don't love me, you don't love me
You don't love me, you don't love me
