Lyrics
I never thought I'd be okay
closing my eyes right here with you
I fear you are using me for yourself
I fell asleep to sounds of sweet guitar
while dreaming of who you really are
I wonder if you lied to me
are you lying to me now?
and I said hey lets sit down
have a talk
take a walk
over coffee at a starbucks
my coffee mug broke again
and she said
"let me tell you something
somebodies been sneakin around
with one of your best friends."
how could this be happening?
I don't know why I trusted you
how could this be happening?
don't ever tell me what to do
I never thought I'd be okay
running around with no one beside me
all by myself and there's no one else
she spoke these words and now you've left me
you left me on that dusty road
that leads to home
I don't know what to do for you
tell me what to do right now
and I said hey lets sit down
have a talk
take a walk
over coffee at a starbucks
my coffee mug broke again
and she said "let me tell you something
somebody's been sneakin around
with one of your best friends."
How could this be happening?
I don't know why I trusted you
How could this be happening?
don't ever tell me what to do
and I said hey lets sit down
have a talk take a walk
over coffee at a starbucks
get along, sing a song
do it wrong, do it right,
everythings about a fight
all I want is you tonight
rock and jam, be a man
have a plan, have a blast
leave the past, we could never make it last
spice your life, cause everything will be alright.
I never thought I'd be okay
closing my eyes right here with you
I fear you're using me for yourself
