I hear that song I loved back then
When I was pursuing her
A song about unrequited love
Yeah, I was sure
Lord, I tried so hard
Did my very best
But I went nowhere
Not sure I ever had a chance
My fated, failed quest
So to hear that tune is bittersweet
I don’t want to remember then
Someone broke my heart
That was way back when

I thought we were in love
At least one of us was
That tune has everything
But its ending is wrong
