you’re not the person that I thought I knew
you're somebody else stood in front of me
I really believed that I gave you room
to be the man you wanted to be
so I waited...
I once believed that I might wear your ring
carried away I was it’s true
but time has lessened disappointment’s sting
I’m so ready to be over you
so I am steppin’ out
I will forget about
every word that slipped off of your careless tongue
I am romantic, yes
but only hopelessness
could keep me clinging to the life you’ve undone
been here before, I know I’ll be fine
solitude doesn’t make me spin
it’s a battle unlike yours and mine
I know I’ll someday win
so I am steppin’ out
I will forget about
every word that slipped off of your careless tongue
I'm a romantic, yes
but only hopelessness
could keep me clinging to the life you’ve undone
this man I’m with might never flush my cheeks
the way your look once brought me low
say you’ll do me right, that you just fell weak
and I’d say “I guess we’ll never know”
so I am steppin’ out
I will forget about
every word that slipped off of your careless tongue
I'm a romantic, yes
but only hopelessness
could keep me clinging to the life you’ve undone
