How Could He Hurt You
Well, well, well, well, well, well
Ooh yeah, oh yeah, mm, listen
Baby, I know that you really think he loves you
And it would hurt you so if you knew the things that I knew, baby
'Cause I see the things that he does behind your back
And I ask myself, how can he treat you like that?
'Cause if I had your love, I'd never let you go and I just don't know
How could he hurt you?
(How could he hurt you?)
How could he treat you so bad?
(How could he treat you so bad?)
How could he lie to you?
(How could he lie to you?)
Have the nerve to say that he loves you
How could he hurt you, baby?
(How could he hurt you?)
How could he cheat on you?
(How could he cheat on you?)
And say that he cares for you, yeah-yeah
He don't deserve to say that he loves you, umm umm
I know you think that your love is pure and true
How long can it take for you to see the pain he's causing you?
If I had the chance, I know I'd be the perfect man, huh
'Cause he couldn't really know what a good thing he has
If I had your love, I'd never let you go and I just don't know
How could he hurt you?
(How could he hurt you?)
How could he treat you so bad?
(How could he treat you so bad?)
How could he lie to you?

And say that he cares for you, you, you, you, yeah
He don't deserve to say that he loves you, mm
He don't deserve a lady half as good as you
(He don't, no, half as good as you)
If I had your love I'd do the things that he don't do
(If I had your love, he don't do)
He plays you for a fool 'cause he thinks you need him
(He plays you for a fool, oh yeah)
But if you let me, let me, I said I'll show you what love's all about
How could he hurt you?
