You Would

Don’t pretend you never looked me in the eye

Don’t make it easy just to walk on by

Don’t pretend you never said it back

Don’t make it hard to keep your face like that

Don’t pretend that you didn’t get hurt

Don’t tell your new girl that I never meant a thing

You’ll never love her like you loved me first.

She’ll never love you like you know I did.

 

Couldn’t keep my secrets,

Couldn’t keep your promises,

You see I had to run,

While I still could.

Couldn’t keep my secrets,

Never meant a word of it.

Now you see you’re missing,

What you never thought you would.

 

Don’t pretend you never kissed me in those places,

Don’t make it easy for me to keep moving on.

Don’t pretend you never filled my empty spaces.

Don’t make it hard to leave you still unscarred.

Don’t pretend that you didn’t get hurt

Don’t tell your new girl that I never meant a thing

You’ll never love her like you loved me first.

She’ll never love you like you know I did.

 

Couldn’t keep my secrets,

Couldn’t keep your promises,

You see I had to run,

While I still could.

Couldn’t keep my secrets,

Never meant a word of it.

Now you see you’re missing,

What you never thought you would.

 

Hide your face from me, your sun.

We all know what you’ve done.

And I’m just a traitor who stares at the mirror,

Just one more number you shouldn’t have called.

 

Don’t pretend that you didn’t get hurt

Don’t tell your new girl that I never meant a thing

You’ll never love her like you loved me first.

She’ll never love you like you know I did.

 

Couldn’t keep my secrets,

Couldn’t keep your promises,

You see I had to run,

While I still could.

Couldn’t keep my secrets,

Never meant a word of it.

Now you see you’re missing,

What you never thought you would.
