I could have been easier on you<br />
I could have been all you held on to<br />
I know I wasn't fair<br />
I tried my best to care<br />
About you<br />
(About you)<br />
<br />
I know I could have been a better man<br />
I always had to have the upper hand<br />
I'm struggling to see<br />
The better side of me<br />
But I can't<br />
Take all your jabs and taunts<br />
You're pointing out<br />
My every fault<br />
And you wonder why I walked away<br />
<br />
When you tell me I'm a wreck<br />
You say that I'm a mess<br />
How could you expect anything less<br />
(Expect anything less)<br />
You latched onto me<br />
Then cried I strung you along<br />
<br />
I told you when you asked<br />
I knew this wouldn't last<br />
At least I could be honest about that<br />
(Honest about that)<br />
And now you're tellin' everyone<br />
How I only did you wrong<br />
<br />
I guess you never knew me at all<br />
<br />
Remember on my 21st birthday<br />
You took me where we went on our first date<br />
We stayed till closing time<br />
After four glasses of wine<br />
You started with the pointless argument<br />
You said that I forgot to compliment<br />
The dress you wore that night<br />
That I've seen a thousand times<br />
<br />
But I think<br />
We just want different things<br />
I want space<br />
You want a diamond ring<br />
Whatever made you think we were meant to be?<br />
<br />
When you tell me I'm a wreck<br />
You say that I'm a mess<br />
How could you expect anything less<br />
(Expect anything less)<br />
You latched onto me<br />
Then cried I strung you along<br />
(Cried I strung you along)<br />
<br />
I told you when you asked<br />
I knew this wouldn't last<br />
At least I could be honest about that<br />
(Honest about that)<br />
And now you're tellin' everyone<br />
How I only did you wrong<br />
(How I only did you wrong)<br />
<br />
I guess you never knew me at all<br />
<br />
You tell me I'm a wreck<br />
You say that I'm a mess<br />
How could you expect anything less<br />
<br />
When you tell me I'm a wreck<br />

How I only did you wrong<br />
(How I only did you wrong)<br />
<br />
Still I see you standing there<br />
Waiting round for me to fall<br />
(Waiting round for me to fall)<br />
Girl you must be crazy<br />
Still believing you and me belong<br />
<br />
I guess you never knew me at all
