you promised the world and i fell for it
i put you first and you adored it
set fires to my forest and you let it burn
sang off key in my chorus 'cause it wasn't yours
i saw the signs and i ignored it
rose colored glasses all distorted
set fire to my purpose and i let it burn
you got off on the hurtin when i wasn't yours
yeah we'd always go into it blindly
i needed to lose you to find me oh
this dance it was killing me softly
i needed to hate you to love me yeah
to love love to love love to love
i needed to lose you to love me yeah
to love love to love love to love you
i needed to lose you to love me yeah
i gave my all and they all know it
then you tore me down and now it's showing
two months you replaced us like it was easy
made me think i deserved it in the thick of healing
we'd always go into it blindly
i needed to lose you to find me
this dance it was killing me softly
i needed to hate you to love me yeah
to love love to love love to love
i needed to lose you to love me yeah
to love love to love love to love yeah
i needed to lose you to love me yeah
you promised the world and i fell for it
i put you first and you adored
it set fires to my forest and you let it burn
sang off key in my chorus chorus chorus
to love love to love love to love
i needed to hate you to love me yeah
to love love to love love to love yeah
i needed to lose you to love me yeah
to love love to love love to love
and now the chapter is closed and done
to love love to love love to love yeah
and now it's goodbye it's goodbye for us
