That's Why I Told You

I thought you loved me too
Cause when we danced around my room
You promised me forever
And I couldn't help but fall deeper into you

That's why I told you
Later that night
When the lights were off
And I was by your side
I whispered in the night
I loved you
That's why I told you
Told you, told you
Baby

I knew how you liked your coffee
How you would rather stay in bed
You were like me in that way
Cause we weren't early risers
But we were both survivors
You got in your head
Overthinking possibilities
That we weren't meant to be

That's why I told you
When you were crying
I wanted to hold you
But you pushed me away
You said we were bound to break
I tried to hide my pain
As I told you I loved you
You accused me of lying
That's why I told you
I lo-o-oved you

You stained me in the rain
By just walking away
I couldn't beg you to stay, you to stay
That's why I told you
I'm starting to breathe again
Trusting a man to hold my hand
Loving myself
Without your help
Four years gone
I think I found the one
Who's better than you will ever be
That's why I told you
To leave me be
