Gone are the lonely days, I thought, my dear
Taking away all of the solo years
I thought you were the one - that felt so clear
Now I don't know whether to [bad word] or fear

I thought I knew your name, finding the [bad word] and now feeling ashamed
I thought I knew your way, hearing your words that I just can't obey
I thought for just one day I would give in and start walking away
I thought I had my say - that I'm in love and I don't want to stay

Gone are the sorry eyes, I thought, my dear
Wiping away all of the lonely tears
I saw my life begin, it felt so clear
I thought you loved me back, it felt sincere

I thought I knew your name, finding the [bad word] and now feeling ashamed
I thought I knew your way, hearing your words that I just can't obey
I thought for just one day I would give in and start walking away
I thought I had my say - that I'm in love and I don't want to stay
