And how can I believe one thing you said?
When hearing the truth in you is so hard
The lies you held were easily read
How can I believe in love at all?
Close to me they seem to be
But the more I care the further I'd fall so

Chorus:
Next time
I won't care about no one
That's right they can do it on their own
Next time you want to hurt somebody well it's too late I'm already gone

And I could never walk three steps behind (I never follow)
The further you stood from me
To get to you the harder I'd try and now
I can only hope my love transcends
So the next time around when they bring me down
I won't be their fool; I couldn't do it all again no

(Chorus)

Next time
I don't care about no one
That's right they can do it on their own, uh huh
Next time you're gonna miss my love
Well it's to late I'm already gone

And then if you call me up
Just to say that you were sorry
I'd say that's not enough
Maybe I'd remind you

Next time
I don't care about no one
That's right they can do it on their own, uh huh
Next time your gonna miss my love
Well it's to late I'm already gone
Next time
That's right
Next time
