How Many Times?

Met you early on, fourteen oh four
Connection between us hard to ignore
Told me certain things you'd never told before
Fell too hard too fast, mind and heart were at war

Ten out of twelve, "We'll make it" you swear
How could I believe? You don't act like you care
On the day you flew away from our love affair
Cried so hard for I knew our ending was there

How many times did we break
On again and off again, tired eyes and hands that shake
How many times did we try
Love me do's and love me don'ts, never enough for you to say goodbye

Ultimatum we said, one last chance at greatness
Naive looking back I was willing to fake this
Your friends fell apart, thought our story'd be like theirs
Said timing was to blame, no - it's your ego that is

How many times did we break
On again and off again, tired eyes and hands that shake
How many times did we try
Love me do's and love me don'ts, never enough for you to say goodbye

I let you go and now the cycle truly ends
It's not dramatic to say we can't be friends
Tell me we'll miss each other, I guess that depends
Have you still got a fetish for false pretence

How many times did we break
On again and off again, tired eyes and hands that shake
How many times did we try
Love me do's and love me don'ts, never enough for you to say goodbye
How many times did it take
Hell I won't count them up, not in the mood to feel heartache
How many times did you lie
To my face and tell me you were the good guy
