Anyways

The only thing sweeter than lies is you

I bet you'd expect me to walk on water 'cause you told me to

So I fake a smile and play along

The preacher's led the choir in sadder songs

So I raise this toast and hope these words find you

Baby, it's alright; darling, it's okay

I never loved you anyways

We all have our reasons

At best, all you needed to understand

Is sometimes fate needs a helping hand

I hear the footsteps pitter-patter across the bedroom floor

Who loves you more

Now that your pursed-lip, sweet-talk remedies

Don't work quite as well as they did before

What a pretty way to carry you the news

Because everybody's lonely when it pays to sing the blues

Baby, it's alright; darling, it's okay

I never loved you anyways

We all have our reasons

At best, all you needed to understand

Is sometimes fate needs a helping hand

The sweet's not as sweet without the bitterness of you

Baby, it's alright; darling, it's okay

I never loved you anyways

We all have our reasons

At best, all you needed to understand

Is sometimes fate needs a helping hand

It's what you wanted

That's what you needed

Baby, don't worry; you got it

Baby, it's alright; darling, it's okay

I never loved you anyways

We all have our reasons

At best, all you needed to understand

Is sometimes fate needs a helping hand
