[Verse 1]
You whispered dreams into my ear
Made me believe you'd keep me near
But you were a ghost
Just passing by
[Prechorus]
You held my hand
Then let it go
Left me stranded in the undertow
[Chorus]
Why did you lead me on
Like a flame that burns
Then it's gone
I gave you all my foolish heart
You tore it down
You ripped it apart
And all I wanted
All I craved
Was to love you in a way nobody else gave
[Verse 2]
Your eyes were storms
They pulled me in
I thought your love was where I'd begin
But your walls were higher than I could climb
[Prechorus]
You said you're not ready
Not today
But you stole my light and walked away
[Chorus]
Why did you lead me on
Like a flame that burns
Then it's gone
I gave you all my foolish heart
You tore it down
You ripped it apart
And all I wanted
All I craved
Was to love you in a way nobody else gave
