Lyrics

And so it turns out that I never quite fell for you
I thought that I might and I honestly wanted to
But I’m not clever enough to try fooling my heart any more
That’s not what these powers of persuasion were created for

Don’t ask me why again
Don’t tell me to try again
I know what I’ve always known
There are worse things than being alone

How can I give you what you tell me that you want
When I can’t even look you in the eye

I can’t lie that I love you
I should never have tried
If it’s all the same
When you curse my name
Remember I never lied
No I never lied
I never lied

True or untrue: you probably knew anyway
Ignorant and innocent were never roles that you could play
I’m not buying into you being devastated and berserk
You and I both know that you let me do all the dirty work

Don’t ask me why again
Don’t tell me to try again
I know what I’ve always known
There are worse things than being alone

I can’t lie that I love you
I should never have tried
If it’s all the same
When you curse my name
Remember I never lied
No I never lied
I never lied

How can I give you what you tell me that you want
When I can’t even look you in the eye

I can’t lie that I love you
I should never have tried
If it’s all the same
When you curse my name
Remember I never lied
No I never lied
I never lied
