By the Way

Close your eyes and stand up tall
Forgive me now when I let you fall
You thought of me too late, baby this is just our fate
After all the good times we had
You expect me to need you, you expect me to love you
But I just don't want you back

By the way, you broke my heart
Took my love to tear me apart
By the way, you thought she was better
And suddenly I didn't matter
So don't expect me to stay
By the way

I lost myself somewhere on my way to you
I went to find it, and now we're already through
After you held me, is that just what you do?
Do you have to act so tough
Felt you slipping through my hands, did I ever have a chance?
Now I just have had enough

By the way, you broke my heart
Took my love to tear me apart
By the way, you thought she was better
And suddenly I didn't matter
So don't expect me to stay
By the way

I gotta let go 'cause I wanna
Gotta move on 'cause I'm gonna be fine again
Find someone who treats me well, love so good you couldn't tell
Because you mess it up every time
By the way, I fixed my heart
Find another girl to tear apart
By the way, I thought you were better
But now you're the one who doesn't matter
I don't expect you to stay

By the way, by the way, by the way
By the way, by the way, by the way
By the way, by the way, by the way
By the way, by the way, by the way
