Thinking about the day you left me behind
Looking for reason in answers I couldn’t find
Running around and around and around in my head
Tryin’ to forget to forget to forget what you said
I wanted to take back the hurt and start all over again
I wanted to think there wasn’t a problem I couldn’t mend
But those tears in your eyes tell a story that’s come to an end
I wanted to fight for us, but there’s some games I can’t win
Saying I’ll change, but you know they’re empty words
Trying to block out the stories of you that I’ve heard
Hoping and hoping and hoping that they’ve got it wrong
But knowing and knowing and knowing the truth all along
I wanted to take back the hurt and start all over again
I wanted to think there wasn’t a problem I couldn’t mend
But those tears in your eyes tell a story that’s come to an end
I wanted to fight for us, but there’s some games I can’t win
I poured my heart out and you still turned away
Guess it was for the best that you didn’t stay
I wanted to take back the hurt and start all over again
I wanted to think there wasn’t a problem I couldn’t mend
But those tears in your eyes tell a story that’s come to an end
I wanted to fight for us, but there’s some games I can’t win
Some games I can't win
Some games I can't win
Some games I can't win
