the way you look at me
clears my mind of all thoughts but you
you have this perfect way of smiling at me
that makes my heart beat faster every second
and when you touch my hand
you hold my heart
~
but i know you don't care 'bout me
i'd like to believe that you did
but i'd be foolin myself
it's happened before, i'll fall for you again
but you wouldn't be there to catch me
and then i'm only hurting myself again
like you've done before
~
i guess i don't feel alone
cuz it's not just me you're foolin
you've let friends of mine fall
they know what i'm goin through
you've been with some longer than others
but it always turns out the same
~
and i know you don't care 'bout me
i'd like to believe that you did
but i'd be foolin myself
it's happened before, i'll fall for you again
but you wouldn't be there to catch me
and then i'm only hurting myself again
like you've done before
~
i know i just can't help myself
i keep coming back for more
i want to believe that your love for me is real
but we both know you're just pretending...
~
and we both know that you don't care 'bout me
i'd like to believe that you did
but we'd be foolin ourselves
it's happened before, i'll fall for you again
you won't be there to catch me
then i'm just hurting myself
like you've done to me before
~
we're just hurting ourselves
we've been through it before
