It Was You

  • Remember when you said we'd run away
    And that you'd love me 'till your dying day
    Rumors started you had someone due
    I just laughed 'cause that was all I could do

    There was me in love all on my own
    10 years if only I had known
    So you thought you'd come on back to me
    I am not the girl that I used to be

    'Cause you, you weren't the one for me
    I can't go back, back to just you and me
    'Cause I could never lie, something inside just died
    It was you

    How does it feel to be so untrue?
    And there's nothing even you can do
    All those years of lying to yourself
    I think you'll find that you're back on the shelf now

    So I hid behind my smile
    Lost in thought just for a while
    Then one day I walked away
    No, you never loved me anyway

    'Cause you, you weren't the one for me
    I can't go back, back to just you and me
    'Cause I could never lie, something inside just died
    It was you

    Don't come running back to me
    And don't come running back to me
    Don't come running back to me
    Don't come running back to me

    'Cause you, you weren't the one for me
    I can't go back, back to just you and me
    'Cause I could never lie
    It was you, you weren't the one for me
    'Cause I could never lie, something inside just died
    It was you Writer/s: BERNARD BUTLER, JOHN MCELHONE, SHARLEEN SPITERI
