Lyrics
I Never Meant To
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why do we hurt the
Ones we really love
For all that we deserve
The world was not enough
For a fool like me
Time after time
You looked the other way
Believed in what I said
To think that you would stay
That was in my head
I couldn't see
What was happening to me
As I pushed you away
Just a little bit more each day
I love you still
And that is never ending
I never meant to make you cry
I can't get over you
I never meant to tell a lie
Nothing I can do
I never meant to make you cry
I can't get over you
I never knew the reason why
I look around the little things you find
The memories left behind
You're always on my mind
And I can't let go
Just for today I can live in a way
That I have to accept
That I'm not going to change your heart
I love you still
And that is never ending
