I know I said I loved you
But I'm thinking I was wrong
I am the first to admit
That I'm still pretty young
I never meant to hurt you
When I wrote you ten love songs
A girl that I could never get
'Cause her boyfriend was apparently fit
And everyone who knew him loved him so
I made you leave him for me
And now I'm feeling pretty mean
But my mind has thrown me over
More times than anyone could ever know
Maybe I should give up, give in
Give up trying to be thin
Give up and turn towards my mother
God knows I love her
And I'm sorry to whichever one
Shall meet my sorry state
Watch my steady lonesome gait
And be aware
That I will never love again
'Cause love and pain go hand in hand
And I can't do it again
So we stayed up late one night
To try and get our problems right
But I couldn't get into her head
Just what was going through my mind
I think she knew where I was going
'Cause she put a load of Malian on
I think she thinks it makes me weaker
It only ever makes me strong
I've got this friend who sounds just like her
And she's the one I'd leave you for
The one that I just adore like you
The same one she turns to me
Says, "Gotta tell you how I feel
If God could make a perfect one for me
It would be you"
And my God told me not to tell her
How much do you love your fella?
I don't know, more every day
Not in this new romantic way
I'll always be your first love
You'll always be my first love
And I'm sorry to whichever one
Shall meet my sorry state
Watch my steady lonesome gait
And be aware
That I will never love again
'Cause love and pain go hand in hand
And I can't do it again
And I will never love again
'Cause I could never hurt someone
Not in this new romantic way
