You were different to me than you are to her…
You stuck around for a while but you didn’t care;
you promised me things you didn’t mean to do
and I lived in that dream, so false, of me and you.
You threw me away like an old pair of gloves.
The funny thing: I don’t feel that I’ve lost.
You disappeared without saying ‘goodbye’
and there wasn’t a single tear in my eye.
I didn’t miss you, I didn’t think of you at all
until the next time you came back, asking for more.
I didn’t trust you, I couldn’t rely on your word…
You said you loved me and would wait for me until I know
that we are made for each other, and are meant to be
but I couldn’t see any future for you and me.
And now you are with somebody else…
Little time has passed but you’ve changed.
Or perhaps this girl deserves the different you
and I was just a girl to play with, a toy, a fool…
