I was sitting on your couch, and that's what you told me
And just when I was starting to come around, you went and changed on me
But it's better for you, and that's better for me, I don't have to shoulder responsibility for you anymore
But what about you, and what about me, I can't stand to say it just wasn't meant to be oh
It's gotta be something in water or something in the air
Cause I've got more questions than answers and darlin that just ain't fair
You were perfect, you were lovely, I was just a little messed up
And you don't know just what you got til you gotta give it all up
It was the best time, it was worst lie, but I wouldn't change a word
Cause honestly I love the way this hurts
Didn't know I could bleed
But the relief of pain is better than feelin' nothin
You know it's real when every word is cuttin'
But it's better for you, and that's better for me, I don't have to shoulder responsibility for you anymore
But what about you, and what about me, I can't stand to say it just wasn't meant to be oh
You were perfect, you were lovely, I was just a little messed up
And you don't know just what you got til you gotta give it all up
It was the best time, it was worst lie, but I wouldn't change a word
Cause honestly I love the way this hurts
And it doesn't feel that great but honestly it's the only way this works
And tell me straight cause we both know that you can't manufacture love
It was the best time, it was the worst lie, but I wouldn't change a word
Cause honestly I love how
You were perfect, you were lovely, I was just a little messed up
And you don't know just what you got til you gotta give it all up
It was the best time, it was worst lie, but I wouldn't change a word
Cause honestly I love the way this hurts
