Resentment Lyrics
I wish I could believe you, and I'd be alright
But now everything you told me really don't apply to the way I feel inside
Loving you was easy once upon a time
Now my suspicions of you have multiplied
And it's all because you lied
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But I'm much too full of resentment
Just can't seem to get over the way you hurt me
Don't know how you gave another didn't mean a thing
The very thing you gave to me
I thought I could forgive you, and I know you've changed
As much as I want to trust you, I know it ain't the same
And it's all because you lied
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But I'm much too full of resentment
And its all because you lied
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But i'm much too full of resentment
I may never understand why
I'm doing the best that I can ...
And I... I tried, and I tried to forget this,
But I'm much too full of resentment
I'll always remember feeling like I was no good,
Like I couldn't do it for you like your mistress could
And it's all because you lied
Loved you more than another, more than my own life
But that part of me I gave you... It was sacrificed
And it's all because you lied
I only give you a hard time
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But i'm much too full of resentment
I know she was atrractive, but I was here first
Been riding with you for 6 years
Why did I deserve to be treated this way by you?
I know you're probably thinking, "what's up with B?"
I been crying for too long, what did you do to me?
I used to be so strong, but now you took my soul...
I'm crying! Can't stop crying! Can't stop crying!
You coulda told me you wasn't happy
I know you didn't wanna hurt me
But look what you've done to me now
I gotta look at her in her eyes and see she's got half of me
How could you lie?
But now everything you told me really don't apply to the way I feel inside
Loving you was easy once upon a time
Now my suspicions of you have multiplied
And it's all because you lied
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But I'm much too full of resentment
Don't know how you gave another didn't mean a thing
The very thing you gave to me
As much as I want to trust you, I know it ain't the same
And it's all because you lied
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But I'm much too full of resentment
And its all because you lied
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But i'm much too full of resentment
I'm doing the best that I can ...
And I... I tried, and I tried to forget this,
But I'm much too full of resentment
Like I couldn't do it for you like your mistress could
And it's all because you lied
But that part of me I gave you... It was sacrificed
And it's all because you lied
'Cause I can't go on and pretend like I haven't tried to forget this
But i'm much too full of resentment
I know she was atrractive, but I was here first
Been riding with you for 6 years
Why did I deserve to be treated this way by you?
I know you're probably thinking, "what's up with B?"
I been crying for too long, what did you do to me?
I'm crying! Can't stop crying! Can't stop crying!
You coulda told me you wasn't happy
I know you didn't wanna hurt me
But look what you've done to me now
I gotta look at her in her eyes and see she's got half of me
How could you lie?

Can't believe no-ones commented on this. I just found out this is a Victoria Beckham song! I'm downloading her version atm and so far so bad xD Beyonce sings this way better (obviously) but they're VERY similar. Anyway the song is pretty self explanitary. Her guy cheated on her & lied to her and she can't get over it 'cause she gave him her life.
Ahh,this song explains the way I feel about a certain someone.Beyonce's voice is amazing.
this song is soooo beautiful. It makes you actually feel as if you've been through this very pain when you really haven't. As I listen to this song...my heart hurts and I think I understand what one who is in love can feel when someone hurts her. This song is really a tearful and soulful song.
Anyone who has been in this situation has all my sympathy.
i've been thru EXACTLY what beyonce has been through in this song, down to the "6 years". she says it perfectly, an i adore the back up singers (you lied, you lied, you lied...). aahhhhh!!!!! he even calls me "b." :( it does feel good, however, to find a song that you can cry to, truly and wholly.
This song is just so...deep... i mean, i LOVE it! it's great for when you're REALLY REALLY upset about a past relationship. so - yeah :-)
beautiful song..beyonce killed it but poshy posh spice wrote this one...
