Rules Lyrics - Anita Baker

Love was meant to be loving 

So many times we don't give, we take 

Love has really no conception to this rule 

Days you gave me were numbered 

And as a rule they were hard to take 

All it took was the number of a fool 

Rules were made to be broken 

So many hearts break the same way too, aw baby 

I said that you ain't no exception to the rule, yes sir 

Your answer begging my question 

It seems I left you too late to ask 

Was this really your intention 

From the start

The nights you left me are empty, baby 

As for the answer, they changed the past 

I tried to let you explain your change of heart 

How could you change your mind 

Rules were made to be broken 

So many hearts break the same way too, aw honey 

I said that you ain't no exception to the rule 

How could they say 

It would be better this way... without you 

When by the usual rules 

I kept presuming that you would stay, baby 

So many hearts break the same way too, now mister 

I said that you ain't no exception to the rule 

You...

Gonna get on my bad heart 

Just like everybody asks you 

You've gotta help baby 

You've gotta help me convert, too 

You better hear what I'm tellin' you
