What We Were

When I left you in person I figured it out, terrified to be attached, I wanted to kiss your mouth, and I can't, but I can't shake off the feeling, still reeling, in retrospect, a relationship is what we were Always so subtly sweet How the hell am I supposed to hate somebody who was never a guarantee, by my side, crooked smile, touch me on the knee, what were we? Ooh I wish you were a stranger Who had punched me in the face and ran away, but I exaggerate what happened, if Itold it like it is I'd be ashamed Just hope one day we'll be damned and blind drunk to tell the truth That we were too scared to love each other through, but you'll change the subject so what's the use, deep down I knew, I think you knew too Ooh I wish you were a stranger Who had punched me in the face and ran away, but I exaggerate what happened, if I told it like it is I'd be ashamed And I'II take it to my grave but I grieve what we were
