Family Man

[Verse 1]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

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?

[Chorus]

I wish you had told me

You were a family man

'Cause if you had told me

I would have made other plans

[Verse 2]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

How long will you play with my emotions

Treat me like a token?

How long must you play your silly games with my heart?

[Chorus]

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)

[Bridge]

Please, I've had enough of this mess

Baby, oh, how long?

How long?

[Pre-Chorus]

How long will you play with my emotions

Treat me like a token?

How long must you play your silly games with my heart?

[Chorus]

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)

[Bridge]

You 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

Why do I put my faith in you

How could I be so blind and let you play me

Play me for a fool

[Chorus]

I wish you had told me

You were a family man

'Cause if you had told me

I would have made other plans
