Tamia - Tell Me How Lyrics

You cried for her
That you can do better
You shoulda known better
Even though you didn't want to
You cried for her
And you deserve better
I can't imagine what she did for you
Did to you

I tried, I tried
But I really don't understand
I really don't know a man
Who cares the way that you do
I tried, I tried
To see it through your eyes
Used to see her in twilight
Don't do it to yourself

If she don't love you anyway
If she don't love you she can't stay
I promise you that there'll be better days

Tell me how
Tell me how to love somebody
'Cause never have I loved somebody
Tell me how you give your heart away
Don't give your heart away
Tell me when you know it started
Tell me when it hurts the hardest
Tell me you won't give your heart away
Oh, oh

You cried for him
But you can do better
You deserve better
And even though you didn't want to
You cried for him
And you deserve better
I can't imagine what he did to you
Did to you

I tried, I tried
But I really don't understand
I really don't know a woman
Who cares the way that you do
I tried, I tried
To see it through your eyes
Used to see him in twilight
Don't do it to yourself

If he don't love you anyway
If he don't love you he can't stay
I promise you that there'll be better days

Oh, tell me how
Tell me how to love somebody
'Cause never have I loved somebody
Tell me how you give your heart away
Heart away, your heart away
Tell me when you know it started
Tell me when it hurts the hardest
Tell me you won't give your heart away
Don't give it away

They don't love you
Don't love you
If they don't love you
Like they need to
Tell me how you give your heart away
All I know is you deserve much more
He should be loving you, yes
He gotta be loving you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Putting you first, yes, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Hey, oh, oh, oh
You
