You knew I'm not your type but still you let me stay
I must be drinking too much, trying to win this game
I thought I love you from the moment that we met
Too blind to see you were a bullet to my head

You promised dreams, you promised things I'd never see
All that I had to do was just stop being me
How can you love me back? I'm not what you believe
Too blind to see I was a joker up your sleeve

Why do we always
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
Why do we always
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?

And I don't want to fall in love again
It's like I'm holding onto something that's pretend
I ain't got no beats, but I got soul, that's something new
And I ain't got no dancing shoes but I can make you move
Yeah, I ain't got no dancing shoes but I can make you move

If I knew then what I know now, I'd never hurt
But sometimes falling down is how we ever learn
I thought I love you 'til forever, but instead
Too blind to see forever wasn't far ahead

Tell me why, why do we always
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?
Why do we always hurt, why do we always
Why do we always hurt the ones we love?

So I don't want to fall in love again
It's like I'm holding onto something that's pretend
I ain't got no beats, but I got soul, that's something new
No, I ain't got no dancing shoes but I can make you move
No, I ain't got no dancing shoes but I can make you move

Yeah, I can make you move
I swear I'll make you move

So I don't want to fall in love again
It's like I'm holding onto something that's pretend
So I don't want to fall in love again
It's like I'm holding onto something that's pretend
I don't want to fall in love again
It's like I'm holding onto something that's pretend
