I, I, I, I won't settle
I loved everything it was
But you threw it all away
When I thought that it was love
Was when you made all your mistakes
I guess you never really change
So I'm sorry it's too late
Before the water gets to rough
I, I, I, I won't settle

I can't say that I'm feeling the same way to you
I can't hide the truth

Then maybe you're right
Maybe you're wrong
Well baby, I've been doing this for so long
Why did I stay? I shoulda been gone, gone, gone
And maybe you're off
Maybe you're on
Well baby, I've been doing this for so long
Why did I stay? I shoulda been gone, gone, gone
I won't settle

I won't settle, I won't settle, I won't settle
No one, no one, I won't settle
I shoulda been gone, gone, gone
I won't settle
Ba-dadadadada

It isn't anything it was
We never had our better days
When I've finally had enough
Is when you're begging me to stay
Well, I guess I'm not in love
So I'm sorry it's too late
Say what you wanna say

I can't say that I'm feeling the same way to you
I can't hide the truth

Then maybe you're right
Maybe you're wrong
Well baby, I've been doing this for so long
Why did I stay? I shoulda been gone, gone, gone
And maybe you're off
Maybe you're on
Well baby, I've been doing this for so long
Why did I stay? I shoulda been gone, gone, gone
I won't settle

I won't settle, I won't settle, I won't settle
No one, no one, I won't settle
I shoulda been gone, gone, gone
I won't settle, I won't settle, I won't settle
I won't settle, I won't settle
(I'm sick and tired of the same old thing
I'm tired of people telling me)
I won't settle

I won't settle, I won't settle, I won't settle
No one, no one, I won't settle
I shoulda been gone, gone, gone
I won't settle
I, I, I, I won't settle
