Mistaken
Does it ever cross your mind
How your words make me feel?
Do you ever stop to see the lashes
They've thrown across my heart?
I'm finally starting to see
Exactly what I meant to you.
Guess things weren't quite
What I always thought they were;
Some days I'd rather just pretend
Make this more than it was
Until now I even believed it.
And, yes, I know it wasn't everything
I tried to make it out to be
But I still never imagined
How little I meant at all.
Silly girl, same ol' boy
I'll just add our story
With the other endings
That weren't so happy.
