Not Quite


That's what I get for thinking
My head was stronger than my heart
Like it ran the show was in control
Wouldn't let me fall apart

Don't say a thing, just listen??
And I'll tell you what went wrong
I knew he was a player
But my heart just played along

I thought I'd have to let him down so easy
I thought I'd be the one to walk away
I've always been the one who got to say when it was done
I thought I'd be all right
Not quite

I never saw it coming
But he'd planned it from the start
He let me think that I was winning
He's a master of the art

He's got a thing for leaving
He's got a taste for blood
You'll never know he's strung you out
'til you're jonesing for his drug

I thought I'd have to let him down so easy
I thought I'd be the one to walk away
I've always been the one who got to say when it was done
I thought I'd be all right

Not quite
Not ever
I thought I
I thought I was so clever

I thought I'd have to let him down so easy
I thought I'd be the one to walk away
I've always been the one who got to say when it was done
I thought I'd be all right
Not quite
