You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it
Sang off key in my chorus
I saw the signs and I ignored it
Rose -colored glasses all distorted
you got off on the hurtin'
When it wasn't yours, yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancin' was killin' me softly
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
To love, love ya, to love, love ya, to love ya
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love ya, to love, love ya, to love ya
I needed to lose you to love me
I gave my all and they all know it
Two months you replaced us,
Made me think I deserved it,
and I think of healing, yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me
To love, love you, to love,
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love you, to love,
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
I put you first and you adored it
Sing off key in my chorus
I needed to hate you to love me
I needed to lose you to love me
And now the chapter is closed and done
