We met when I was only just 17
And everything we did was so new to me
Oh, it was you, my love
You, my love
Took me to places that I, I'd never been
Showed me the brightest future I'd ever seen
Oh, it was you, my love
But it wasn't true, my love
Nothing ever goes the way you plan it
It takes a little time for you to understand it
Over time, I've learned whatever happens
Is gonna happen either way
But I, I, I
I wasn't ready for goodbye
I would've stayed right by your side
But you can't say the same
'Cause you're the one that walked away
I, I, I
I'll tell myself that I'll be fine
Then wipe the tear drops from my eyes
I'll pick up the parts
While you go and break another heart
I gave you everything and you wanted more
You pick me up to drop me when you were bored
And that was cruel, my love
Cruel, my love
I'm not the first you've broken, I should've known
If you don't want me, then I'm better alone
That's the truth, my love
Yeah, that's the truth, my love
But I, I, I
I wasn't ready for goodbye
I would've stayed right by your side
But you can't say the same
'Cause you're the one that walked away
I, I, I
I'll tell myself that I'll be fine
Then wipe the tear drops from my eyes
I'll pick up the parts
While you go and break another heart
Another, another, you'll break another heart
Another, another, you'll break another heart
Another, another, you'll break another heart
Oh-oh-oh-oh
'Cause nothing ever goes the way you plan it
And even though it hurts, one day you'll understand it
Stronger now because of all that's happened
And I wouldn't have it any other way
But I, I, I
I wasn't ready for goodbye
I would've stayed right by your side
But you can't say the same
'Cause you're the one that walked away
I, I, I
I'll tell myself that I'll be fine
Then wipe the tear drops from my eyes
I'll pick up the parts
While you go and break another heart
