Weren't you the one who said that you don't want me anymore

And how you need your space and give the keys back to your door

And how I cry and try and try to make you stay with me

But still you said the love was gone and that I had to leave

Now you

Talking about a family

Now you

Saying I complete your dream

Now you

Saying I'm your everything

You're confusing me, what you're saying to me

Don't play with me, don't play with me 'cause

What goes around comes around

What goes up must come down

Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me

What goes around comes around

What goes up must come down

Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me

I remember when I was sitting home alone

Waiting for you

To 3 o'clock in the morn'

And when you came home you'd always had some sorry excuse

And explaining to me like I'm just some kind of a fool

I sacrificed the things I want just to do things for you

But when it's time to do for me

You never come through

Now you

Wanna be a part of me

Now you

Have so much to say to me

Now you

Wanna make time for me

What you doing to me, you're confusing me

Don't play with me, don't play with me 'cause

What goes around comes around

What goes up must come down

Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me

What goes around comes around

What goes up must come down

Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me

I remember when I was sitting home alone

Waiting for you

To 3 o'clock in the morn'

Night after night knowing something's going on

Wasn't long befo' I be go-a-go-a-gone

Lord knows it wasn't easy believe me

Never thought you'd be the one that would deceive me

And never do what you're supposed to do

No need to approach me fool, cause I'm over you

What goes around comes around

What goes up must come down

Now who's crying, desiring to come back to me

What goes around comes around (yeah)

What goes up must come down

It's called Karma, baby

And it goes around
