Lyrics
You're a player
That can't be denied
The long line of women you've loved and abandoned
You can't hide
Take what you want
When it's not enough
You cast them aside
You pass my office
Everyday
You're always smiling, winking, and flirting
When I look your way
If I give into you, Lord only knows the hell that I'd pay
(chorus)
I won't be that woman
Lying in your arms
Won't be the next victim to fall to your charms
I won't be that woman
One you can use
My self respect is something that I just ain't willing to lose
You're standing with flowers
Outside my door
You act like no
Is a word you've never heard before
The desire I feel for you is getting hard to ignore
chorus repeat
OOOOOOOOOOO
I've tried, I've tried so many times
To get you to leave me alone
I know my limits
And temptation is getting way too strong
You need to move on
But I won't be that woman
