The first time I laid eyes on you
I knew that you'd mean something to me
You walked in the room and I lit right up
Like a goddamn Christmas Tree
And when you set your sights on me
My world stopped turning
And when you brushed against my arm
I knew I'd go down burning
In the flames of my desire
Cut to thousands of foolish tears later
A hundred unreturned phone calls
Wondering what I did to lose your love
Or did I ever have it all?
I've wasted so much time
Hoping you'd choose me
I keep trying to win your heart
But I just keep on losing
Now I finally see right through
All your leading me on with your puppy dog eyes
And your sweet talking eyes so kind
My heartbeat racing baby the whole time
You were messing with my mind
You built me up to believe I meant something to you
Then convinced me I was wrong
The best thing I got outta you was this song
Well I've been wallowing far too long baby
And I'm ready to move on
Instead of waiting for you to come around
I'm writing song after song after song after song
I opened up my heart and you went running
I've been keeping my shades drawn
Well time to let the sun in
Now I'm finally on to you
And all your leading me on with your puppy dog eyes
And your sweet talking eyes so kind
My heartbeat racing baby the whole time
You were messing with my mind
You built me up to believe I meant something to you
Then convinced me I was wrong
The best thing I got outta you was this song
The best thing is saying goodbye
Refusing to let you keep making me cry
The best things in life are free
But I'm through giving up the best of me
The best things are still yet to come
I'm still hopeful and I'm still kinda young
The best thing is my solitude
Loving my damn self instead of some damn dude
Baby I'm so done with you
And all your leading me on with your puppy dog eyes
And your sweet talking eyes so kind
My heartbeat racing baby the whole time
You were messing with my mind
You built me up to believe I meant something to you
Then convinced me I was wrong
The best thing I got outta you was this song
