[Verse 1]
Maybe I left so many things unspoken
Maybe I lied about where I was going
And I don't blame you for the fact that you blame me
And I won't hate you if you wanna forget me
[Chorus]
And say it was all a cloud of smoke
Say it was nothing but a joke
Everything that you say about me is true
But, just for the record, I really loved you
[Verse 2]
You laugh with your friends when they talk about us
You agree with them when they say I was never good enough
For all that you needed that I wasn't giving
I guess it was easier to put it like this
[Chorus]
And say it was all a cloud of smoke
And say it was nothing but a joke
Everything that you say about me is true
But, just for the record, I really loved you
[Bridge]
No, oh, maybe these're nothing but a sorry woman's words
Oh, oh, never try to lessen how much it hurt
Oh, oh, maybe it's a little bit selfish now
You probably don't even want to hear me out
[Chorus]
So say it was all a cloud of smoke
And say it was nothing but a joke
Everything that I did, I used every excuse
But, just for the record, I really loved you
[Outro]
Darling, just for the record, I really loved you
Just for the record, I really loved you
