For Reality

He didn't mean to cheat, It wasn't his nature.
Oh I can't keep this going on
Under my baby's nose
It just ain't right what I'm doing
I've got to tell her how it happened
I'll tell her that I'm sorry
But will that be the last time for me
I guess I'm stuck between
Lovers and reality

I'm stuck in the middle
I didn't mean to cheat at all
No it ain't me
Or how i be
I'm just really really sorry
I'm stuck in the middle
I didn't mean to cheat at all
No it ain't me
Or how I be
Just woken up to reality

Now I can't take back what I did here
You're telling me that this is what you feared
You thought that i would cross the line
But I've been faithful all this time
As I recall you cheated on me
So this could be payback really
You're getting jealous that's what I see
No this is not
No this is not me

I'm stuck in the middle
I didn't mean to cheat at all
No it ain't me
Or how I be
I'm just really really sorry
I'm stuck in the middle
I didn't mean to cheat at all
No it ain't me
Or how I be
Just woken up to reality

I didn't mean to
Hurt your feelings
I didn't mean to
Cross the the line
I never wanted
Your to be sorry
I never wanted
This to be our last time

I'm stuck in the middle
I didn't mean to cheat at all
No it ain't me
Or how I be
I'm just really really sorry
I'm stuck in the middle
I didn't mean to cheat at all
No it ain't me
Or how I be
Just woken up to reality

No this ain't me
Or how I be
I guess it's time
For reality
