[Verse 1: Babyface]
Here we go
Damn, here we go again
Loving you has caused me so much pain
But you don't see it, you never see it
[Verse 2: Toni Braxton]
So why apologize?
I was just doing what I had to do, baby
An eye for an eye
[Chorus: Toni Braxton & Babyface]
God knows I never meant to hurt you, woo
I never meant to break your heart, your heart, babe
God knows I never meant to turn you on, to turn you out
Never meant to take it that far, that far, babe
God knows I never meant to hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
[Verse 3: Babyface]
Baby, guilty as charged, I'm not gon' lie, babe
I did you wrong so many times, yes
So I know why you crossed the line
Oh, but girl, I never dreamed you'd cheat on me
[Verse 4: Toni Braxton & Babyface]
But I, (No, no) I apologize (Don't apologize, don't apologize)
Oh, baby, the pain I put you through (I put you through it too)
What I did to you (I did the same to you)
Ooh, I made you cry
[Chorus: Toni Braxton & Babyface]
God knows I never meant to hurt you, woo
I never meant to break your heart, your heart, babe
God knows I never meant to turn you on, to turn you out
Never meant to take it that far, that far, babe
God knows I never meant to hurt you (To hurt you)
I never meant to break your heart, your heart, babe
God knows I never meant to turn you on, to turn you out
Never meant to take it that far, that far, babe
God knows I never meant to hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
[Bridge: Babyface & Toni Braxton]
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Can we start over again?
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Can we start, baby, as friends?
Whoa-whoa-whoa
Give me one more try
The tender kisses you give to me
Would be the only thing that I'd ever need
[Chorus: Babyface & Toni Braxton]
God knows I never meant to hurt you, no, babe
I never meant to break, to break your heart
Ooooh your heart, no, no
Never meant to take, take this too far
God knows I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to break your heart
Never meant to break your little heart
God knows I never meant to turn you on, to turn you out
Never meant to take it that far, that far, babe
God knows I never meant to hurt you, to hurt you
Woo
Never meant to break your little heart
Oh, you, baby, baby baby
Never meant to take, take this too far
Here we go
Damn, here we go again
Loving you has caused me so much pain
But you don't see it, you never see it
[Verse 2: Toni Braxton]
So why apologize?
I was just doing what I had to do, baby

[Chorus: Toni Braxton & Babyface]
God knows I never meant to hurt you, woo
I never meant to break your heart, your heart, babe
God knows I never meant to turn you on, to turn you out
Never meant to take it that far, that far, babe
God knows I never meant to hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
Hurt you
