lyrics

Baby girl knows what it's like to be loved.
Knows what it's like to be touched.
Knows what it's like to be taken care of.
But he, he brings you down, love.
He brought me down too.
Well, I hope you understand what I'm trying to tell you.
'Cause he acts like you're not even there
and then suddenly cares
and then suddenly disappears again.
'Cause he, he's using you, dear.
Though the reason isn't clear,
you gotta get away while you're still young.

Well, he shines like gold on a winter morning
and makes your heart light in the summertime.
He cooks for you and calls you sweetheart,
but morning glory, what's the full story?
Morning glory, what's the full story?

Ask him about honesty.
Ask him about faithfulness.
Ask him about him and me.
Yeah and maybe all of the things that he failed to mention
and days and nights
he was holding hands with someone new.
Somebody who wasn't you.

Oh baby girl,
can't you see what I'm insinuating?
Can't you see what I'm relating?
Well, I hope I got you contemplating.
'Cause now, now's the time to realize
he's dragged you along for the longest ride
and now you gotta let go.
And yeah.
It's gonna hurt real bad.
But no girl deserves that.
You poor, poor dear. Look at what he's done to you.

Well he promised you the world, 'cause he says he loves you
but the words that come out of his mouth are lies.
He calls you up and says he's thinking of you, but in the end at night he's in his bed to be satisfied.

Ask him about honesty.
Ask him about faithfulness.
Ask him about him and me.
Yeah and maybe all of the things that he failed to mention
and days and nights
he was holding hands with someone new.
Somebody who wasn't you.

Is your happiness worth this strife?
You're holding on to a feeling that's fading.
You will have other loves in your life.
So cut the cord. It's just like being born!

Ask him about honesty.
Ask him about faithfulness.
Ask him about him and me.
Yeah and maybe all of the things that he failed to mention
and days and nights
he was holding hands with someone new.
Somebody who wasn't you.
