Lonely
　- Britney Spears

You think I'm so naive
How dare you play with me
I gave you heart and soul, yeah
Tell me baby please
Why you're screwin' with my head
I don't think you understand
I won't take your *huh* no more
Don't knock on my door

Not this time
Because I recognize
I've heard it all before
And I

I think of all the times that I wasted
Think of all the times that I took you back
Ain't no way I'll be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in
Let's just face it
Better off alone, and I won't turn back
You thought that I would be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in

Don't tell me how to feel
Or say that you're for real
My mind's made up
I'm cool without ya
You got no more appeal
Now this girl don't need no man
Say what she can do what she can't
Now I live for me
Boy, does that make you weak

Not this time
Because I realize
I've heard it all before
And I

I think of all the times that I wasted
Think of all the times that I took you back
Ain't no way I'll be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in
Let's just face it
Better off alone, and I won't turn back
You thought that I would be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in

I think of times you made me cry
You had me so confused
I'm tired of trying
To leave behind this
What's a girl to do

Spoken:
Think of all the times you made me sick
I used to think I couldn't handle it
What'd you think, I'm just another chick?
Mess with Brit, baby, you must've tripped
What were ya thinkin when you lost my trust
You had it all, now you're left with nothin
Oh baby, now I know you want my touch
And now you're lonely and you still want me

I think of all the times that I wasted
Think of all the times that I took you back
Ain't no way I'll be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in
Let's just face it
Better off alone, and I won't turn back
You thought that I would be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in

I think of all the times that I wasted
Think of all the times that I took you back
Ain't no way I'll be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in
Let's just face it
Better off alone, and I won't turn back
You thought that I would be lonely
I don't wanna let you back in
