I made you laugh I made you cry
|
I made you open up your eyes
|
Didn't I
|
I helped you open out your wings
|
your legs and many other things
|
Didn't I
|
Am I the greatest bastard
|
that you know
|
The only one who let you go
|
The one you hurt so much
|
you cannot bear
|
Well we were good
|
when we were good
|
When we were not misunderstood
|
You helped me love
|
you helped me live
|
You helped me learn how to forgive
|
Didn't you
|
I wish that I could say the same
|
But when you left
|
you left the blame
|
Didn't you
|
Am I the greatest bastard
|
that you met
|
The only one you can't forget
|
Am I the one your truth's
|
been waiting for
|
Or am I just dreaming once again
|
Some dreams are better
|
when they end
|
Some make it mistake it
|
Some force and some will fake it
|
I never meant to let you down
|
Some fret it forget it
|
Some ruin and some regret it
|
I never meant to let you down
|
We learn to wag and tuck our tails
|
We learn to win and then to fail
|
Didn't we
|
We learn that lovers love to sing
|
And that losers love to cling
|
Didn't we
|
Am I the greatest bastard
|
that you know
|
When will we learn to let this go
|
We fought so much
|
we've broken all the charm
|
But letting go is not the same
|
As pushing someone else away
|
So please don't let on
|
You don't know me
|
Please don't let on
|
I'm not here
|
Please don't let on
|
You don't love me
|
'Cause I know you do
|
I know
|
That some make it mistake it
|
Some force and some will fake it
|
I never meant to let you down
|
Some fret it forget it
|
Some ruin and some regret it
|
I never meant to let you down
|
I never meant to let you
|
I never meant to let you down
|
I never meant
|
|
