I could have been easier on you |
|
I could have been all you held on to |
|
I know I wasn't fair |
|
I tried my best to care about you |
|
I know I could have been a better man |
|
But I always had to have the upper hand |
|
I'm struggling to see the better side of me |
|
But I can't take all your jabs and taunts |
|
You're pointing out my every fault |
|
And you wonder why I walked away |
|
When you tell me I'm a wreck |
|
You say that I'm a mess |
|
How could you expect anything less? |
|
You latched on to me |
|
Then cried I strung you along |
|
I told you when you asked |
|
I knew this wouldn't last |
|
At least I could be honest about that |
|
And now you're telling everyone |
|
How I only did you wrong |
|
I guess you never knew me at all |
|
Remember on my twenty-first birthday |
|
You took me where we went on our first date |
|
We stayed till closing time |
|
After four glasses of wine |
|
You started with a pointless argument |
|
You said that I forgot to compliment |
|
The dress you wore that night |
|
That I've seen a thousand times |
|
But I think we just want different things |
|
I want space, you want a diamond ring |
|
Whatever made you think we were meant to be? |
|
When you tell me I'm a wreck |
|
You say that I'm a mess |
|
How could you expect anything less? |
|
You latched on to me |
|
Then cried I strung you along |
|
I told you when you asked |
|
I knew this wouldn't last |
|
At least I could be honest about that |
|
And now you're telling everyone |
|
How I only did you wrong |
|
Guess you never knew me at all |
|
You tell me I'm a wreck |
|
You say that I'm a mess |
|
How could you expect anything less? |
|
When you tell me I'm a wreck |
|
You say that I'm a mess |
|
How could you expect anything less? |
|
You latched on to me |
|
Then cried I strung you along |
|
I told you when you asked |
|
I knew this wouldn't last |
|
At least I could be honest about that |
|
And now you're telling everyone |
|
How I only did you wrong |
|
Still I see you standing there |
|
Waiting 'round for me to fall |
|
Girl, you must be crazy |
|
Still believing you and me belong |
|
I guess you never knew me at all |
