We Were Over When we Started

You know, I should have seen it from the start,
Because we were over when we started,
Oh baby, That was plain for all to see,
And the only one who didn't see it,
From what I now know, was the lovestruck me.
I don't know why I could never see it.
Guess it was the fear of my breaking heart.
You know we were over when we started.
And baby, the signs were there to show me,
To say that we would never ever last.
Oh baby, why was I too blind to see,
While, you only talked about your past,
I always talked about our future,
Joke's on me, we'll never have that future.
You know we were over when we started,
And now I am more than broken hearted.
Oh baby, that forest I couldn't see.
The trees were just too thick I couldn't see.
Hidden in the woods, thorns my heart to *****,
What I'd one day find would make me sick,
The breakup I was never ready for,
I wasn't ready to fall anymore.
You know we were over when we started,
And now I am more than broken hearted.
Everyone around me told me to leave,
I should be aware for I would soon grieve,
The love that I held locked in my heart,
In yours, it just wasn't there from the start.
Any compromise was missing you see,
There was no chance love was our destiny.
You know we were over when we started,
And now I am more than broken hearted.
It was always your way or not at all,
As your harsh, heated words I now recall,
So now, I've learned to look around me,
And learned not to fall so hard and fast
I've learned to take my time and maybe,
The next time I'll find something that will last.
You know we were over when we started,
And now I am more than broken hearted.
I guess that we were no good together,
And through my tears, I seem to know that now,
You taught me what to look for I gather,
So, you could stand up, take a final bow.
And nevermind I'm drowning in my tears,
Only memories remain from our years.
You know we were over when we started,
And now I am more than broken hearted.
You know we were over when we started,
And now I am more than broken hearted.
I'm a better person now forever,
Even though you broke, tore apart my heart,
I'll admit we were no good together
Blind me, I should have seen it from the start.
You know we were over when we started,
And now I am more than broken hearted.
