Happy ever after never happens much these days
Forever almost never turns out that way
No I didn't mean to do you wrong
Getting it right just took too long

Maybe you are better with someone else
Maybe I just saved you from myself
When I left you in the dark
Girl, I knew you’d never call my bluff
The writing on the wall just wasn't enough
You were falling in love and I was falling apart

It's no secret, honey, I’m a wreck
Everything I touch becomes a mess
Same old story on every page
Yeah the endings never change

Maybe you are better with someone else
Maybe I just saved you from myself
When I left you in the dark
Girl, I knew you'd never call my bluff
The writing on the wall just wasn't enough
You were falling in love and I was falling apart

Girl, someday you're gonna find someone who doesn't waste your time

Maybe you are better with someone else
Maybe I just saved you from myself
When I left you in the dark
Girl, I knew you'd never call my bluff
The writing on the wall just wasn't enough
You were falling in love and I was falling apart
