Counting the reasons to leave this place, now I've realized my mistake
And it's obvious, he feels the same
We're both broken and bruised today
How come mama never told me, there were so many kinds of love
From lust to infatuation, to the kind that just tears and destructs
Oh even if, you came back, to me
I still couldn't, no no, wouldn't, be who you wanted me to be
Oh even if, you came back, to me
I still couldn't, no no, wouldn't, be who you wanted me to be
First time I ever saw him he had the devil on his side
Against my better judgement, I just went right along for the ride
Wistful and lonely, sometimes I wish he was still here
Still pulls my heart strings after all these years
Empty house, empty shelves, empty picture frames
A foolish ending, to a foolish game
How come mama never told me, there were so many kinds of love
From lust to infatuation, to the kind sent from heaven above
Oh even if, you came back, to me
I still couldn't, no no, wouldn't, be who you wanted me to be
Oh even if, you came back, to me
I still couldn't, no no, wouldn't, be who you wanted me to be
