Is this the way it's really going down?
Is this how we say goodbye?
Should've known better when you came around
That you were gonna make me cry
It's breaking my heart to watch you run around
'Cause I know that you're living a lie
But that's okay baby 'cause in time you will find

What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around

Now girl, I remember everything that you claimed
You said that you were moving on now and maybe I should do the same
The funny thing about that is I was ready to give you my name
Thought it was me and you, baby, and now it's all just a shame
And I guess I was wrong

Don't want to think about it, don't want to talk about it
I'm just so sick about it, can't believe it's ending this way
Just so confused about it, feeling the blues about it
I just can't do without ya, can you tell me, is this fair?

Is this the way things are going down?
Is this how we say goodbye?
Should've known better when you came around
Should've known better that you were gonna make me cry
And now it's breaking my heart to watch you run around
'Cause I know that you're living a lie
But that's okay baby 'cause in time you will find

What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around

What goes around comes around
What goes around comes around
You should know that
What goes around comes around
What goes around comes around
You should know that

Don't want to think about it, don't want to talk about it
I'm just so sick about it, can't believe it's ending this way
Just so confused about it, feeling the blues about it
I just can't do without ya, tell me, is this fair?

Is this the way things are going down?
Is this how we say goodbye?
Should've known better when you came around
Should've known better that you were gonna make me cry
It's breaking my heart to watch you run around
'Cause I know that you're living a lie
But that's okay baby 'cause in time you will find

What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around

Let me paint this picture for you, baby

You spend your nights alone and he never comes home
And every time you call him all you get's a busy tone
I heard you found out that he's doing to you
What you did to me, ain't that the way it goes?

When you cheated girl, my heart bleeded girl
So it goes without saying that you left me feeling hurt
Just a classic case, s-s-scenario
Tale as old as time, girl you got what you deserved

And now you want somebody to cure the lonely nights
You wish you had somebody that could come and make it right
But girl I ain't somebody with a lot of sympathy
You'll see

What goes around comes back around
I thought I told ya, hey
What goes around comes back around
I thought I told ya, hey
What goes around comes back around
I thought I told ya, hey
What goes around comes back around
I thought I told ya, hey

See? You should've listened to me, baby
Because what goes around comes back around
