Lyrics Family Man - Karyn White

Family Man

Yesterday you told me that you love me
And you love me for good
You said that we’d get married
When the time was right and I understood
But how long were you planning to deceive me?
Love me and then leave me
How long will you pull the wool all over my eyes?
I wish you had told me
You were a family man
'Cause if you had told me
I would have made other plans
It wasn’t very long ago
You promised me that we’d go away
Told me to be patient
You say good things come to those who can wait
How long will you play with my emotions
Treat me like a token?
How long must you play your silly games with my heart?
I wish you had told me
You were a family man
'Cause if you had told me
I would have made other plans
I wish you had told me (I'm walking out the door)
You were a family man (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
'Cause if you had told me (Don't come around no more, baby)
I would have made other plans
(I would have made other plans)
Please, I’ve had enough of this mess
Baby, oh, how long?
How long?
How long will you play with my emotions
Treat my like a token?
How long must you play your silly games with my heart?
I wish you had told me
You were a family man
'Cause if you had told me (If you had told me)
I would have made other plans
I wish you had told me (I'm walking out the door)
You were a family man (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
'Cause if you had told me (So don’t come around no more, baby)
I would have made other plans (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
I know it just ain’t right
To your family and your wife
And all your lies and alibis
Are messing up my life
How do I love you like I do, I do
Have perfect faith in you
How could I be so blind and let you play me
Play me for a fool
I wish you had told me
You were a family man
'Cause if you had told me
I would have made other plans
