I could have been easier on you
|
I could have been all you held onto
|
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 onto me then cried that 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 21st birthday
|
You took me where we went on our first date
|
We stayed till closing time, after 4 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 onto me then cried that 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
|
|
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 onto me then cried that 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.
