I loved you better when i barely knew you
We didn't like the way we were
I wanted to, but i just couldn't know you
We always ended up both hurt
I didn't know what you were going through
But i was always there to come thru
Didn't wanna give us up and so did you
But we couldn't work, we always knew
Let's just be strangers then
No need to play pretend
That we can both be friends
We know that that won't end well
Let's just be strangers then
No need to play pretend
That we can both be friends
We know that that won't end well
Starting fights because the air is dead
Crying tears so we can talk instead
Being weak to let you love me back
Calling back 'cos i'll be left in read
I didn't wanna lose you
But if you were a choice
I wouldn't choose you
I know that i deserve better
And so do you
Let's just be strangers then
No need to play pretend
That we can both be friends
We know that that won't end well
Let's just be strangers then
No need to play pretend
That we can both be friends
We know that that won't end well
I loved you hard, but still
I couldn't know you
Our love was a hiccup, out of the blue
I'd want to know you, but you had
Your issues
But i realized, I had some too
But i wish you well
But i wish you well
And i pray you find yourself
