[Verse]
When we met I thought it must be fate
Destiny would never show up late
I made you laugh and you made me smile
And I fell in love after a while
I thought our future was intertwined
But found out the stars were misaligned
[Verse]
I gave you everything that I had
Stood by you through the good and bad
I loved you and thought you loved me too
One day it was over out of the blue
You said you’d met the man of your dreams
I kept it in but I wanted to scream
[Verse]
And then you were gone just like that
You tossed us out at the drop of a hat
Then six months later I heard from you
You said he was gone, his love wasn’t true
Then as I spoke to you on the phone
You said I love you, I want to come home
[Chorus]
I can’t tell you what you want to hear
How much I miss you and want you near
Those feelings they left along with you
When you told me you’d found someone new
But you saw the grass isn’t always greener
That did a lot to change your demeanor
And now you’re begging to come back home
You made your bed so sleep in it alone
Those tears won’t change my mind my dear
I can’t tell you what you want to hear…
No, I won’t tell you what you want to hear
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
You’d left without input from me
And you seemed happy as you could be
You didn’t care about how I felt
Or all of pain that I was dealt
All you cared about was your life
You no longer wanted to be my wife
[Verse]
You should really look before you leap
Because what you so you will reap
You threw what we had into the trash
Giving up on a love that would last
Now you’re alone, your future is lost
You took that risk and look what it cost
[Chorus]
I can’t tell you what you want to hear
How much I miss you and want you near
Those feelings they left along with you
When you told me you’d found someone new
But you saw the grass isn’t always greener
That did a lot to change your demeanor
And now you’re begging to come back home
You made your bed so sleep in it alone
Those tears won’t change my mind my dear
I can’t tell you what you want to hear…
No, I won’t tell you what you want to hear
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I remember the day you left
I tried so hard to make you stay
All you told me was goodbye
As I watched you walk away
On that day you burned that bridge
And there’s no way you can cross
The good life you once had is dead
And I’m so sorry for your loss
[Final Chorus]
I can’t tell you what you want to hear
How much I miss you and want you near
Those feelings they left along with you
When you told me you’d found someone new
But you saw the grass isn’t always greener
That did a lot to change your demeanor
And now you’re begging to come back home
You made your bed so sleep in it alone
Those tears won’t change my mind my dear
I can’t tell you what you want to hear…
No, I won’t tell you what you want to hear
