Chorus
When you need me, I wonāt be around
Iāll be with someone elseās daughter
When you call me, I wonāt come to you
Iāll be a gangster of love
Verse 1
All alone, all our friends are gone
Nobody here but me and you
Just lying here, thinking ābout the night
You first said you would be true
I believed in you ācause I wanted you
The signs were there, but I could not see
You lied to me, as I tried to be the best man that I could be
Change 1
It hurts to say, but I let you use me
I wanted love but you abused me
Chorus
When you need me, I wonāt be around
Iāll be with someone elseās daughter
When you call me, I wonāt come to you
Iāll be a gangster of love
Verse 2
Our time has passed, we never had a chance
I thought we did, but I shoulda known better
Though I was āthe manā, but you had a plan
Youād take my love, but keep me on āholdā
Like a premium insurance policy
So if you fell, Iād break your fall
From a lover who will do you wrong
Then youād come back to me
Change 2
Listen girl, Iām saying I donāt want you
You will need me, but I wonāt help you
Chorus
When you need me, I wonāt be around
Iāll be with someone elseās daughter
When you call me, I wonāt come to you
Iāll be a gangster of love
