[Verse 1]
Baby, baby, don't try to play me
You know something's wrong
That's why I'm not talking to you
Baby, baby, don't even fake it
You have broke my heart
And there's nothing that you can do

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to call you, just the other day
And your own sister told me
Someone was taking my place, oh
You wouldn't come to the phone
She forgot to put me on hold
And I can't believe what I heard
What I heard in your very own words

[Chorus]
How could you call her baby?
How could she be your lady?
Thought you were mine, thought I was yours
How could you call her sweetheart?
How come you're breaking my heart?
How could you be so wrong?

[Verse 1]
Baby, baby, hear what I'm saying
I am not your fool
You should see me now as gone
Baby, baby, you must think I'm crazy
I will not come back
I feel I have been too wronged

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't try to call me 'cause I don't have the time
I'll be much, much too busy
Hanging out with friends of mine, oh
If we meet in the street
You should not even bother to speak
'Cause I still hear the words in my head
Those are some words I will never forget

[Chorus]
How could you call her baby?
How could she be your lady?
Thought you were mine, thought I was yours
How could you call her sweetheart?
How come you're breaking my heart?
Thought you were mine, thought I was yours

[Bridge]
Boy, you owe me an apology
Just don't look for forgiveness from me
And I tried my best to understand
But I've done for you all that I can
If I ever see you in the streets
Just forget that you ever knew me
'Cause I still hear the words in my head
Those are some words I will never forget

[Chorus]
How could you call her baby?
How could she be your lady?
Thought you were mine, thought I was yours
How could you call her sweetheart?
How come you're breaking my heart?
Thought you were mine, thought I was yours
How could you call her baby?
How could she be your lady?
Thought you were mine, thought I was yours
How could you call her sweetheart?
How come you're breaking my heart?
How could you be, be so wrong?
