Couldn't you just have been happy with what i gave you?
couldn't you just have been happy when i told you my love was true?
why did you run to her?
for some reason, my love, is what i thought you were.
How come i'm the one with the broken heart?
How come I'm the only one who's been torn apart?
I know now you led me on,
but baby don't you see i was already gone,
before you told me,
your love, is what i couldn't be.
i saw the lipstick on your shirt,
but maybe that's because you were always a shameless flirt,
i never believed your lies,
for some reason i could see right through your eyes,
you never came home some days,
and yet i let you have your ways.
why weren't you happy with what i gave you?
i promised you my love was true.
Darling, do you remember when i said i couldn't live without you?
I'm going to carry that through,
baby, do you remember when i said burning would be the worst way to die?
Its something i won't deny,
in truth, i'm saying goodbye.
