You were never really what I thought,

I imagined you to be a weed.

You weren’t exactly what I sought.

The stars don’t shine, the ones I bought,

Giving me wishes I don’t need.

You were never really what I thought.

With all my lies and secrets caught,

Your love was always ill decreed.

You weren’t exactly what I sought.

You and I, we loved and fought,

But in the end we both agreed;

You were never really what I thought.

Without you there, my mind did rot.

Oh, and how my heart did bleed.

You weren’t exactly what I sought.

I understand the things you taught,

But it’s your love that I do need.

You were never really what I thought,

You weren’t exactly what I sought.
