Dancing around the room to record spins
You and I we both made promises
Symphonies and movie screens
And no one else caught in between our love
Wish that's the way it could be
Staying up all night to watch the sun
And sleeping in as soon as it came up
Then you'd sneak me out the door
And I'd wonder what all of this was for
'Cause you're not the man that I once knew
And I changed myself to see you through
And I did it all, all that you asked
And I walked on top of broken glass for you
But is it better that I loved and lost
If you didn't love at all?
Did you even love at all?
It's never easy knowing that there's someone else
But you told me I was highest on your shelf
And if you thought I believed that's true
Then I must have looked like a fool to you
'Cause you're not the man that I once knew
And I changed myself to see you through
And I did it all, all that you asked
And I walked on top of broken glass for you
But is it better that I loved and lost
If you didn't love at all?
Did you even love at all?
And that one night before we fell asleep
While drunken secrets spilled all over me
You told me you "couldn't stand to see
Such a special soul settle for someone like me"
He said, "I'm not the man that you once knew,
And you changed yourself to see me through,
And you did it all all that I asked
And I watched you walk on broken glass for me
I'm so grateful that you loved and lost
Don't think I didn't love at all
I'm feeling like I lost it all"
