He told you he would stand by you.
He said you were the only one.
But then he went and changed the rules,
And left you wondering what you could have done.
He never really let you in,
‘Cause he couldn’t let himself come out.
You gave your heart and soul to him.
Now everything you thought was real is not.
(chorus:)
He took you for a ride, and I know you’re tryin’ to get back on your feet.
But you can’t go back in time, ‘cause there’s only one way to go.
So won’t you sit down by my side,
‘Cause it hurts to see you cry.
There’s nowhere left to hide,
No matter how you try.
So won’t you hold me now,
‘Cause I never felt this way before.
And won’t you show me how,
Show me what it’s like for you to give.
‘Cause there’s nothing wrong with you.
It had everything to do with him.
You got that magic in your eyes,
But he was blinded by something else.
No matter how hard you try,
You can’t compete with something in himself.
