i knew it right from the start
but i still pushed through
hoping that something will change
’cause i believe you

the compliments and sweet words
felt so good to hear
random time you spent with me
made it felt so real

or maybe i was just fooled
by my hopeful mind
and my ever trusting heart
that once became blind

’cause now you couldn’t find time
to return my call
maybe you’re just too busy
to even care at all…
