lyrics
It started one sided
On my side really
Infatuation’s like listening without fully hearing
So I picked what I wanted
Ignored all the rest
Why fuss over flaws when you can hide behind jest
But it’s all worn thin, I’m tired of it now
And I’m thinking of him less when he’s not a around
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
The tables have turned
As one might say
But I gotta ask if he ever even liked me anyway
He can call me cold hearted
I’ve been there before
But being around him’s turned into a chore
He’s a good, good man and I’m a wretched old girl
He could do so much better in this beautiful world
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
He, yeah he wants to, wants to make, make believe
He, yeah he wants to, wants to make, make believe
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
On my side really
Infatuation’s like listening without fully hearing
So I picked what I wanted
Ignored all the rest
Why fuss over flaws when you can hide behind jest
But it’s all worn thin, I’m tired of it now
And I’m thinking of him less when he’s not a around
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
The tables have turned
As one might say
But I gotta ask if he ever even liked me anyway
He can call me cold hearted
I’ve been there before
But being around him’s turned into a chore
He’s a good, good man and I’m a wretched old girl
He could do so much better in this beautiful world
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
He, yeah he wants to, wants to make, make believe
He, yeah he wants to, wants to make, make believe
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
He wants to make believe
That I would never leave
