Daughters of St. Paul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I thought you were the one but you wanted him more
I look back and see what a fool I was
But this fool still wants you despite the pain you caused
There is a hole in my heart
And a piece of my soul is missing and
I don't know what to do
It happened on the day
If it was a mistake you could have at least told me the truth
All of those things that you told me were all lies
And I still keep thinking about them all the time
I look back and see what a fool I was
But this fool still wants you despite the pain you caused
There is a hole in my heart
And a piece of my soul is missing and
I don't know what to do
It happened on the day
You called another guy your bae
If it was a mistake you could have at least told me the truth
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you right now
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you right now
I look back and see what a fool I was
But this fool still wants you despite the pain you caused
There is a hole in my heart
And a piece of my soul is missing and
I don't know what to do
It happened on the day
You called another guy your bae
If it was a mistake you could have at least told me the truth
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you right now
I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, I need you right now
