[Verse 1:]
Say, lady
Can I ask you why you’re treating me
Llike a step child
With a future not so bright
I thought you said
You would never be that way to me
You said you'd never leave me
For the rest of my life

I believe you
All the times you said
Baby, you’re always on my mind
I don't believe you
So save those words you said to me
And I'll be on my way
I've got to say
Goodbye, baby

[Hook:]
You didn't want my love
That's what starts the pain, baby
You didn't need my love
I think that's your game

[Chorus:]
Goodbye, goodbye
You'd never be that way to me
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
I've got a love
That you will never see
Hey

[Verse 2:]
I guess you thought you had me
Strung out on your love
Simply because you're oh, so fine

It takes more than looks
To steal my heart away from me
So I'm sorry, baby
The joke's on you this time

[Repeat Hook:]

[Repeat Chorus:]

[Bridge:]
I'm on a rampage
This is my stage
'Cause I'm the T to the E to the V to the I to the N
That's where it starts
Here we go

[Repeat Chorus:]

Goodbye
Goodbye

Tevin Campbell

Tevin Campbell is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter that got his career started with two big names in music—first working with Quincy Jones in 1989 on “Tomorrow (A Better You, Better Me)” from the album Back on the Block and then working with Prince on “Round and Round” from the Graffiti Bridge soundtrack in 1990.

His debut album T.E.V.I.N. was released on November 19, 1991 and features the #1 R&B hits “Tell Me What You Want Me To Do” and “Alone With You,” which helped the album go platinum and earn Tevin a Grammy nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. His next album I’m Ready was released on October 26, 1993 and featured the Babyface-produced hits “Can We Talk” and “I’m Ready.” This album went double platinum and led to three more Grammy nominations for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “Can We Talk,” Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “I’m Ready,” and Best R&B Album.

Tevin’s third album Back to the World was released on June 25, 1996 and he followed that up with the release of a self-titled album on February 23, 1999. He appeared in the Broadway musical Hairspray in 2005 and after some guest appearances on various shows throughout the years, he released the song “Safer on the Ground” in 2016.
