And I've been meaning to say this to you

That my heart isn't black and blue anymore

When they're sung in vaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin

And maybe I was wrong
Bm G B
I only remember feeling so alone

G B
This isn't where I meant to lay down

You're a fool to believe that you gave me some

I only remember feeling so alone
