[Intro]
Oooh
He made it so hard to trust someone (Trust someone)
He made it so hard to fall in love (Fall in love)

[Verse 1]
Not tryna mess up this relationship (thinking)
'Cause the last man did me that way
You gon' do the same things
I don't wanna be this way
But I'm hoping you can change the way that I feel (Ohh)
You see, I trusted him with everything
Never held back anything
Thought we'd be together for the rest of our lives
So suddenly he took his love away
And made it hard to trust again, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I've been holding back, but he really hurt me bad
I don't wanna take my past and put it all on you
I'm not tryna hold you back
Really hope you understand
I don't know what I'm gonna do

[Chorus]
When I think of what he did to me
It makes it hard to fall in love
When I think about just what I need
It makes it hard to trust someone
Baby, I gotta let go
Don't wanna miss out on love this time
Gotta leave those things behind
[Verse 2]
Whatever's yours, you call it ours
Send flowers with love, you keep me showered
And so did my ex-man at first
You see what started out so simple
All flew out the window
There I go comparing you to him again
It keeps holding me down (I gotta let it go)
I wanna give love a chance ('Cause you may never know)
Baby, you could be the one for me
Yes, the only one for me
And I don't wanna lose a good thing, no

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I've been holding back, but he really hurt me bad
I don't wanna take my past and put it all on you
I'm not tryna hold you back
Really hope you understand
I don't know what I'm gonna do

[Chorus]
When I think of what he did to me
It makes it hard to fall in love
When I think about just what I need
It makes it hard to trust someone
Baby, I gotta let go
Don't wanna miss out on love this time
Gotta leave those things behind
[Verse 3]
One disappointment, one heartbreak
Too many mistakes in love I've made
I can't come with all this baggage
Thinking he's gon' have it
See, I know I'm being selfish, but I gotta let it go
Close that chapter, close that book
Faith and love is all it ever took
That's why I never gave up
And I never gave in
'Cause I know true love is waiting for me again

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I've been holding back, but he really hurt me bad
I don't wanna take my past And put it all on you
I'm not tryna hold you back
Really hope you understand
I don't know what I'm gonna do

[Chorus]
When I think of what he did to me
It makes it hard to fall in love
When I think about just what I need
It makes it hard to trust someone
Baby, I gotta let go
Don't wanna miss out on love this time
Gotta leave those things behind
[Outro]
He made it so hard to trust someone (Trust someone)
He made it so hard to fall in love (Fall in love)
Oooh
