I want you to know I cried
beneath my baseball cap
I want you to know I would've died
and gone to hell an back
Just to see you smile
the way you used to smile
Before I put this band together
when my love was worthwhile
I never see you anymore,
you're never there when I call,
and you're asking me why are we breaking up.
I want you to know I tried
all summer long to hide
from people I knew who would ask me why you weren't by my side
I never knew what to say
I pointed out to sea
I circled to shells in the sand and dug a trench between
I never see you anymore,
you're never there when I call,
and you're asking me why are we breaking up.
I had headphones on
I couldn't hear the phone ringing
I was a jerk
and now you've gone in my defence
I was singing about you
and how you make me feel okay
when I am having a bad day
you really need to know this once
so hear me out
I want you to know I lied
about the sixteen track
I want you to know
I only sold my songs to get you back
Just to see you smile
the way that you used to smile
beneath my baseball cap
I want you to know I would've died
and gone to hell an back
Just to see you smile
the way you used to smile
Before I put this band together
when my love was worthwhile
I never see you anymore,
you're never there when I call,
and you're asking me why are we breaking up.
