Lyrics
Remember when you believed in me
Remember when we were friends
Now you come when you need me
Now this here has to end
Before you were the man on the block
We would hang out for fun
We had many happy times
Now you're always on the run
How is it that a thing so good
Has turned out oh so bad
I wish us how we used to be
I wish us back again
I was lyin to you
I was lyin' to myself
Cause you're not the man
And I hope you understand
That I was lyin' to you
I was lyin' to myself
I don't want you no more
Cause I was lyin' to myself
I wanna be over the pain I feel
I'm ready to be through
But something says give it one more try
Cause I'm lonely without you
But I'm afraid to trust again
You may play me like a fool
So instead I'll play by myself
And try hard to forget you
BSection
How is it that a thing so good
Has turned out oh so bad
I wish us how we used to be
I wish us back again
I was lyin to you
I was lyin' to myself
Cause you're not the man
And I hope you understand
That I was lyin' to you
I was lyin' to myself
I don't want you no more
Cause I was lyin' to myself
Bridge
From the start
I gave you my heart
All you gave was untrue
From the start i wanted to love you
I wanted to love you
From the start I gave you my love
All you gave was untrue
From the start I wanted to love you
i wanted to love you to love you to love you
Hook
Repeat
End
