The Man I Thought You Were

You're pretty clever, getting me to fall so fast
I thought I'd never be so blind in love that I looked right past

What you said and who you are yeah yeah
What you said and who you are yeah yeah
Are two different things
Turns out that

I was in love with the man I thought you were
The man who promised he meant every single word
The man who looked me in the eye
And told me he'd never been so sure
And then took it all back in one day
Guess I really dodged a bullet
'Cause for a moment I was in love
With the man I thought you were

You said my dreams were more important to you than yours
You said being next to me felt like home

But what you said and what you did yeah yeah
What you said and what you did yeah yeah
Are two different things
Turns out that

I was in love with the man I thought you were
The man who promised he meant every single word
The man who looked me in the eye
And told me he'd never been so sure
And then took it all back in one day
Guess I really dodged a bullet
Cuz for a moment I was in love
With the man I thought you were

And I count my blessings
Every single one
'Cause I almost thought you were everything
Everything you're not
Turns out

I was in love with the man I thought you were
The man who promised he meant every single word
The man who looked me in the eye
And told me he'd never been so sure
And then took it all back in one day
Guess I really dodged a bullet
'Cause for a moment I was in love
With the man I thought you were
