I WAS WRONG (TO THINK)

i was wrong to think you'd let me get over you
the things you said were honest what you told me wasn't true

i drove you to your husbands now you've met someone online
when they ask why i'm bleeding you tell your family i'm fine

you never lied because you never said that we were through
i wished you liked me well enough to let me get over you

you window's open so no one can see me use the door
you tell them you're not with me you don't see me anymore

you tell me that you love me when your real friends don't come through
my head hates me 'cuz my heart is still in love with you

you're always out of time & you're to busy to talk now
you tell me i should grow up when i say i don't know how

you only wore my ring if you thought that there's no one around
you said i'll never be a king because i'm just your clown

you're married to your husband when your boss is out of town
you left your dating profile out so i won't hang around

you're mad at me for all the things they never did with you
you punch me everytime i can't see getting over you

you're busy every weekday on the weeknights you can't talk
you drop me off miles from my home you say i need the walk

you never tell your weekend friends i really have a name
you take them so seriously to you i'm just a game

my teeth need to be whiter before you'll be seen with me
now that you're not lonely you won't be alone with me

you're always with you real friends when i've got something that i need to say
you tell me that you'll always love me in a general way

i'm good for moving furniture because its done during the day
you tell me i must finish before you go out to play

when you're with me you tell everyone you're out of town
it must be nice to always have someone to be around

i wasn't ugly when you had to make it on your own
but now you can't let friends know you're talking to me on the phone

when someone else is with you your voice tells me i should leave
i shouldn't bother you when you're awake or when you're asleep

its bad to call on weekdays, you don't answer on weekends
on the weeknights you're doing something with your a-list friends

i always call at the wrong time but when you call its okay
i shouldn't call you when its night and you can't talk during the day

you want us to be friends that talk but have nothing to say
you want to go to heaven but you're much too good to pray

i'm not as good as you and i should always know my place
it must be nice to always be in first and never race

i hope he treats you better than he loves you for all time
if he likes you half as much as i did you'll be fine

no one else has ever loved you half as much as i
my only friend is radio i wish you'd let me die

when your heart was broken i let you play with mine
i need to drop you off by eight because your husband's home by nine

i can see you only when no one else has time
you may have loved me once but i know you were never mine

you say you've no time for me when i gave all mine to you
you're in the black now so you can forget when you were blue

when you fell i made you laugh and helped you to your feet
when your friends had no room for you i offered you my seat

when your friends said you were fat i treated you like gold
now you're all hungry and angry and you look like you're old

the microwave that heats your meals i gave you valentines day
the tv in your living room i gave you christmas day

when you're with people you love you watch their favorite dvds
with the player i got you before i got one for me

now that you're vice-president you wonder right out loud
why anyone would spend the night with one who snores so loud

you promised me that from now on that you'll mock me no more
you friends and you laugh at me 'til you're all peeing in the floor

how could you have stayed so long with someone that's so far beneath you
i'm permanently unwelcome because i'll see how they treat you

no one has loved you more than you love you except for me
those you love look at forest only i have seen your trees

you're now the person that i always told you that you'd be
you tell your friends you can't recall anything good about me

when i ask you about movies, when i ask about your ring
you don't answer and you're unable to recall a thing

an hour doesn't pass without me wondering what you're doing
my head is pissed at me because my heart is leading us all to ruin

i told you i hurt real bad right after every time we speak
i cannot be with people and i let me get weak

i let folks make fun of me i start believing what they say
i have no friends i go nowhere no one wants me to stay

i look forward only to the time when you get off from work
its not about romance neither one is being a jerk

i've never liked another person as much as i liked you
when we talked you made everything i thought was old brand new

we listened to each other we talked an hour every night
for years after you "iced" me we still talked about what's right

i'd miss you twenty hours but i had something new that gave me light
i never had a best-friend and we never had to fight

my best-friend knew me so well she sounded different than you do
i can't say it hurts to miss you for my only friend was you

for years i kept our conversations in a safe, important place
you made me like my car and i cared not that i lost the race

it was so easy to talk to my best friend any time
you may not ever have been my girlfriend but you were my Best Friend of All Time

i asked of you the very thing i hoped i'd never know
i asked you very carefully for a chance to let you go

now nothing has a purpose there's no movie i want to see
i now have the life i wanted i've got the job that's right for me

everything i worked for years to get i now do everyday
but no food tastes good anymore i have nothing to say

i now hurt worse because i lost the person i liked most to you
i was wrong to ask you to, please, let me fucking get over you
