Ex-girlfriend Lyrics

Exgirlfriend I'm trying to explain that I can't find the words to say

I'm feeling better since you left and so

I guess I should confess that my mind was in duress

I really made an awful mess with all the times I called you late at night

To prove that I was wrong and you were right

And justify the ending I was trying to forestall

I swear it don't mean anything at all

Details, I didn't act so right, yeah, but I don't wanna fight

I like what I've got when it's not there

And the further I was away, it got easier to say

You know how much I don't care

But you don't know what you've got until it's gone

I heard that in a Joni Mitchell song

I'm talking though I see all of the writing on the wall

I swear it don't mean anything at all

You don't know what you've got until it's gone

I heard that in a Joni Mitchell song

I'm talking though I see all of the writing on the wall

I swear it don't mean anything at all

Now that this thing is finally dead and I can't get you into bed

To save my life or ruin our friendship

I made my face a stepping stool, but I tried to be cool

Like I'd do this for most anyone

I know that all of this has been in vain

But that's what I've been trying to explain

I'm talking though I see all of the writing on the wall

I swear it don't mean anything at all

So try to make believe that I might really have the gall

To say it don't mean anything, I don't believe it anyway

I swear it don't mean anything at all

I swear it don't mean anything at all
