Thought I Was
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.
She came into my day I told her softly
That maybe she could stay cuz
We love that touch to feel like this
Cuz afterall ignorance is bliss
She stayed a while then packed her things
She said goodbye that's why I sing
I lived like she wanted me to cuz
I thought I was in love with you
I thought I was in love with you
I thought I was in love with you
I thought I was in love with you
Next time I tried to look with both eyes open hoping that I would find
Myself a better half let's do the math and take away the point of view
She blinded me I stumbled in
I fell for her once again
I lived like she wanted me to cuz
chorus
Last love I had last thing I needed
But who was gonna tell me that
If it was real then I should feel something
Giving it back to me
So it's a shame
No need to blame
We play this game
Whether we know or not
I lived like she wanted me to cuz
chorus
