We only dated for two months I think we moved too fast You had finally convinced me This was something that would last I walked into it cautiously Wary of the signs You made it seem like you were certain That you wanted to be mine I broke down all the guards That kept me from seeing you I tore down some defenses At the chance of something new You weren’t what I expected But I was willing to give it a try Now all I feel is tricked by you When you said that short goodbye. I don’t know how we got here This maze of deceit I thought you were leading me Somewhere really sweet But you shot up your defenses Just as I let mine down You said never mind You turned right around Now I’m left to grieve someone I never really knew But lets just say that answered prayer Turned me away from you

When you said never mind
We only dated for two months I think we moved too fast You had finally convinced me This was something that would last I walked into it cautiously Wary of the signs You made it seem like you were certain That you wanted to be mine I broke down all the guards That kept me from seeing you I tore down some defenses At the chance of something new You weren’t what I expected But I was willing to give it a try Now all I feel is tricked by you When you said that short goodbye. I don’t know how we got here This maze of deceit I thought you were leading me Somewhere really sweet But you shot up your defenses Just as I let mine down You said never mind You turned right around Now I’m left to grieve someone I never really knew But lets just say that answered prayer Turned me away from you
