Give me a minute of your time
And let me explain it
and tell you why
I'm in over my head now
Look in my eyes
I'm afraid I'm losing my mind again
I recall now
How they said
"run as fast as you can, girl.
he's no good."
And I stayed
'Cause I honestly believe
in your heart.
Because dear, I know it's true.
And I'm losing you
'cause there's much better girls out there
And I look back and regret
How I dropped my heart again
And I wonder, wonder why
It's gotta be this way
It's always this way
And I gave all I got
to make you feel special.
Your kiss, forever on my lips
forever on my skin
forever on my mind
I'll never fall again
like i fell for you
my nightmare came true
This is me swallowing
all my pride and my pain
and my anger, i threw it away
'cause i'm willing to tell you
what you're gonna miss when i'm gone
We would have snuggled on the sofa
and would've watched "Restless"
I'm not much for bad things
but for you i'd go all the way
And we'd dance to our favorite songs
and favorite bands, like tegan and sara,
do you remember?
I'd sleep in your sweater
and keep you safe and sound
I'd love every inch of your body
and kiss all your scars
I'd make you laugh
when you were about to get mad
Now I know it was wrong
when I thought I got back in your head
And they said "he doesn't deserve you"
I didn't care again, I didn't mind again
And I wonder, wonder why
It's gotta be this way
It's always this way
And I gave all I got
To be the best you'll ever have
Your blue eyes
Forever on my mind
Forever in my head
Forever in the past
We'll be just strangers
with memories
love will find me, i guess, i guess.
And I wonder, wonder why
It's gotta be this way
it's always this way
if i will get you
by saying goodbye
i don't wanna stay, you'll walk away
won't give it a try
you'll be alright, you'll be loved
and i'll be just fine
