Time and time again
It seems that I'm the price
Tasting all your lies
Made me realize
Time to set it straight
The things I never said
And now we have to end
A game of 'let's pretend'

Let 'em know babe
Babe it's alright
Take a step back
And look what you torn inside
Let 'em know babe
Babe it's alright
It's too late, damage's done
Then you run my mind

You never loved me
And now I can't look back
You've always wanted me a player
You said you need me
And now I can't look back
You've always wanted me a player
Oooh
Player
I'm your player (player)
You've always wanted me a player
Oooh (you never loved me)
Player
Oooh (never loved me)
I'm your player
You've always wanted me a

You're whispering my name
But now it's fair to clear
That I'm no longer here
It's hard for you to hear
So take a look around

There's no more games to play
It's wicked when I say
It has to end this way

Let 'em know babe
Babe it's alright
Take a step back
And look what you torn inside
Let 'em know babe
Babe it's alright
It's too late, damage's done
Then you run my mind

You never loved me
And now I can't look back
You've always wanted me a player
You said you need me
And now I can't look back
You've always wanted me a player
Oooh
Player
I'm your player (player)
You've always wanted me a player
Oooh (you never loved me)
Player
Oooh (never loved me)
I'm your player
You've always wanted me a

You never loved me ('cause you're just a player)
You said you need me (play, play, play)
'Cause you're just a
Player (oooh)
Player
I'm your player
You've always wanted me a player
You never loved me (player)
I'm the player
You've always wanted me a
