I know it's getting dark out and I can't make you stay
You say you want to go and you can't have it that way
But when you give your reasons I can't help but see
That you've been making stories up about you and me

You've got it in your head that I said you make me angry
But all I really meant is sometime this is hard
You're telling all your friends that maybe you should leave me
But you're forgetting who I am and who we are

And if they ask you can't say I never loved you
I never loved you
Don't let your mind tell lies that I never loved you
'Cause you know that I do, I do

Everything in life that's worth it is gonna come with some pain
You can't grow a garden if you don't get rain
And I didn't wanna give up on what I knew was good
But I hope you find a way to see things as you should

So when your on the phone and talking with your family
If they want to know why you've been on your own
It could never be said that I'm the one who left you alone

So if they ask you can't say I never loved you
I never loved you
Don't let your mind tell lies that I never loved you
'Cause you know that I do, I do

So if they ask you can't say I never loved you
I never loved you
Don't let your mind tell lies that I never loved you
'Cause you know that I do, I do
I do, I do, I do
