What am I gonna do with this heart?
Catching all these bad arrows and darts
I don't wanna be lonely, but I know what I want, yeah
Maybe this train has run out of steam
'Cause there's nothing but nothing 'tween you and me
I don't wanna leave you lonely, but I know what I want
And it ain't you no more
Spent my whole life looking for the one I could call
Wasted all my time on you trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it, I won't take it personal, ooh
If you don’t stop to count your blessings (If you don’t stop to count your blessings)
One day you’ll wake up and find them missing (you’ll wake up and find them missing)
I don’t wanna see you lonely, but you gotta know what you want, yeah
Ooh, if you want a love that's only pretend (if you want a love that's only pretend)
Maybe you should've bought a Barbie and Ken (you should've bought a Barbie and Ken)
Well, my heart is not a toy to play with (no)
Now I know what I want
And it ain't you no more
Spent my whole life looking for the one I could call
Wasted all my time on you trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it, I won't take it personal
Yeah, oh, oh yeah
But then again, maybe I will
Said we do it all for the thrill
Or this part if you love me still
No, scratch that, say goodbye, seal the deal
Real is what you want now, don't you?
But I'm not the one now for you
This was already over before it began, so walk away, be a man
Spent my whole life looking for the one I could call
Wasted all my time on you trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it, I won't take it personal
(Spent my whole life looking for the one I could call)
Wasted all my time on you trying to make this beautiful
But it's clear to see you don't love me at all
Baby, go ahead and say it, I won't take it personal
Oh, yeah, yeah
What am I gonna do with this heart?
Catching all these bad arrows and darts
I don't wanna be lonely, but I know what I want
