It's fight or flight
I learned that from my daddy
All boys, they lie
So why would I let one have me?

My love, my love, my love, my love
Sleeps with one eye open
My love, my love, my love, my love
Goes like run, run, run

So, it's easier to leave
'Cause when I think too much it's just a waste of time
I, find you hard to believe
And I want to but I still don't understand
How to trust a man
How to trust a man
How could I, ever trust a man

You see it's only temporary, give me time baby show me the way
If you're different prove it to me, to me, to me
No girl has time to make love outta something ugly
New pain, old crimes, on my mind when you say: Just trust me

My love, my love, my love, my love
Sleeps with one eye open
My love, my love, my love, my love
Goes like run, run, run

So, it's easier to leave
'Cause when I think too much it's just a waste of time
I, find you hard to believe
And I want to but I still don't understand
How to trust a man
How to trust a man
How could I ever trust a man

It's easier to leave
'Cause when I think too much it's just a waste of time
I, find you hard to believe
And I want to but I still don't understand
How to trust a man
How to trust a man
How could I ever trust a man
How to trust a man
How to trust a man
How could I ever trust a man
