i run these stories through my head
her coming home and us just staring at each other
we'll both know, yeah we'll just know
i won't care that she took me through a maze
left me there for days until she made up her mind to go away

REFRAIN:
you'd think i'd know by now
you'd think i'd wash this down
did you think i'd hurt her now just to heal my heart
you don't know me
you don't know me
you don't know me
and she don't owe me anything

i'd love to think that she was out to hurt me
given the facts still maybe we could try again
but she didn't mean the harm she put me through
but i could never go to her and trust
that she would ever care

REFRAIN

if time is all it takes then i've got plenty of that
and i'm a better man for all the time it takes

REFRAIN
