Lyrics

I swear I didn't leave you for someone else
I swear I didn't mean to hurt you
I swear I just felt left upon the shelf
I truly thought we could work through

All the problems that we faced
I swear that we could work together
I didn't want the years we had erased
I swear I thought it was for ever

I guess we went too hard
Too soon
We wanted too much
Too hard
Too soon
We wanted far too much

I swear to god it was something else
Something unavoidable
I swear on my life it wasn't me
That caused such a terrible
Outcome

I swear I thought that we could make it
If we really tried
I swear I never left our love for dead
I thought it had already died

I swear the time we had together was the
Most precious to me
I swear the good times were so good
I thought it was make-believe

I guess we went too hard
Too soon
We wanted too much
Too hard
Too soon
We wanted far too much

I swear to god it was something else
Something unavoidable
I swear on my life it wasn't me
That caused such a terrible
Outcome

I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear

I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear

I guess we went too hard
Too soon
We wanted too much
Too hard
Too soon
We wanted far too much

I swear to god it was something else
Something unavoidable
I swear on my life it wasn't me
That caused such a terrible
Outcome

I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear

I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear
