I used to think he loved me
Back when we got married
I used to think he knew me
But it's not his baby I carried
.
He used to be so nice to me
He used to be so sweet
I will never forget that day
He swept me off my feet
.
He was so clumsy and so cute
The way he was so scared
The way he was so paranoid
But yet he was prepared
.
He knew the words to his little speech
He knew them all too well
But the way his voice shook
He was nervous, I could tell
.
I think he thought he didn't deserve me
He didn't think it was right
He didn't think he was the one
That I wanted to sleep with at night
.
But he was wrong, very wrong
Because although he was strange
He was the one, the one I loved
And I wanted to take his name
.
I loved him once, I loved him twice
And he returned it for a while
There was no mistaking that love
As I walked down that aisle
.
Why I loved him is a mystery to most
But I loved him just because
He is amazing and you'd never believe
How flexible he is…or was
.
Eventually he started to forget
Everything we'd built
All our hopes and all our dreams
And he's the one who should have guilt
.
But it's me who suffers from it
Because of his lack of love and his neglect
And now what we had back then
Is all just a wreck
