even good people break hearts Lyrics

I know that you wanted this to last

Believe me though I wanted it too

Maybe we were moving way too fast

Or maybe I just cut it too soon

Last thing I wanted to do was hurt you

But even good people break hearts

Presumptuous of me to say I'm "good" I know

But I tried my best from the start

Thank you for this chapter that you gave me

Won't forget the Colombian lady

And all the Spanish music she'd play me

But now she hates me

It's amazing

How a stranger turns into a craving

But it's so unfair to keep you waiting

On me 'til I feel an indication

Of affirmation

Oh you deserve to be

With someone who only brings you peace

Someone who would work to meet your needs

And who you could trust with your body

And you deserve to see

What it really means to fall in deep

All the ways that love's supposed to be

And I'm so sorry

I really wished it could be me

You could hate me

Hell I'd understand you for that

Wanted to treat you well

In the end I still fell flat

Don't know if you could tell

I was transparent as glass

With everything I felt

My intent was never bad

Maybe I'm just lost

On a dated map of love

But as I follow it

You're someone that I'm thinking of

Wondering that maybe I didn't wait long enough

To see the potential between us

Thank you for taking such a risk on me

The boy you met at a Halloween party

Chatting next to bottles of Bacardi

And now you haunt me

It's appalling

How after those nights I wasn't all in

But it's so unfair to keep on stalling

While I know damn well you might be falling

I had to call it

'Cause you deserve to be

With someone who only brings you peace

Someone who would work to meet your needs

And who you could trust with your body

And you deserve to see

What it really means to fall in deep

All the ways that love's supposed to be

And I'm so sorry

I really wished it could be me
