Cut ties and run like hell
I'll give it a summer to end up
Not so well, oh well
It shows what you know
When he breaks your heart
I'll say I told you so
You, you say "he's one of a kind"
And I, I say he's just buying your time
He's not cut clean,
Like you see in your dreams
And he's not
Upfront like you want him to be
He says he's "dumbstruck"
But he's trying his luck
And his touch has got you
All but falling in love
Give it up, give a rest
And don't you give it your best
He'll leave you, left for dead
Just like he's done with the rest
And just how many times will you put your heart out on the line?
Cause I'm telling you for the last time
Cut ties and run like hell
I'll give it a summer to end up
Not so well, oh well
It shows what you know
When he breaks your heart
I'll say I told you so
Dress up like he's ready to kill
On a night pick you up
To "take his girl for a thrill"
Oh surprise! You deny
The plain and simple in sight
How goodnight means goodbye
Forever leaving your tongue left
Tied up in knots
And running deep in your thoughts
Not a loss, what you sought
The simple lesson is taught
Giving up, what a mess
Too bad you gave it your best
And he left like I said
Just like he's done with the rest
And just how many times will you put your heart out on the line?
Cause I'm telling you you're not alright
Cut ties and run like hell
I'll give it a summer to end up
Not so well, oh well
It shows what you know
When he breaks your heart
I'll say I told you so
Cut ties and run like hell
I wish you were better off
Out with someone else
Oh well you know how it goes
When he breaks your heart
I'll say I told you so
I told you so
I told you so
I told you so
I told you so
Cut ties and run like hell
I'll give it a summer to end up
Not so well, oh well
It shows what you know
When he breaks your heart
I'll say I told you so
Cut ties and run like hell
I'll give it a summer to end up
Not so well, oh well
It shows what you know
When he breaks your heart
I'll say I told you so
Cut ties and run like hell
I wish you were better off
Out with someone else
Oh well you know how it goes
When he breaks your heart
I'll say I told you so
