True Romance

Open your eyes and see me,

Tell me that it's not too late.

Whisper to me a sad song,

Weighing us down in shame.

I always said I believed you,

You told me that was so clich©.

And with every kiss I resented you

Because your feelings never got in the way

I know that you never loved me;

I know that you never cared at all,

Maybe just one more dance

Cause that's as close as you're gettin' to a true romance

Open your heart and feel me,

Tell me you don't feel the same.

I dig down deep for forgiveness,

And still you're busy placing the blame.

This isn't about right or wrong now,

It's not about wasted time.

I should have paid closer attention,

But I didn't bother reading the signs.

I know that you never loved me;

I know that you never cared at all,

No my love we can't be friends,

In fact I liked you much better

When you'd just pretend.

Open your arms and hold me,

Tell me it'll be alright.

Tell me the thing you've never told a soul

That keeps you up at night.

When could you tell it was over?

When did you turn on me?

I'd cry if I thought it would change your mind

Cry for the girl I hoped you to be.

[Chorus 1]
