Can I say it’s nobody’s fault That it wasn’t mine and it wasn’t yours Couldn’t take just one more night Wishing to be alone You gave those summer nights the darkest light you know And I can’t stay just one more day you left me out in the storm
Can I say that nobody’s wrong That you didn’t mean it and I didn’t want See us going our separate ways But that’s the way that is gotta go. You gave those sunny days the heaviest rain you know And I can’t hide nowhere else, you left me out in the cold
CHORUS
You tellin’ how the story was meant to be And you let me play my part I did Till you changed all of the scene You really thought that I would have stayed like this
So this is how you came and played your role you did You changed the whole plot and rewrote the script Till I stepped on the scene And flipped the whole script between that “you and me”
VERSE 2
Now you know why I gotta go Gotta go for mine and you’ll go for yours There is nothing left for me to do I won’t play another role
You turned the sweetest thing in to the worst you know And I don’t want to play your way I got a better act to show
CHORUS BRIDGE
You act so perfectly my applause my compliments You’re a better actress than woman So watch me play the part of someone leaving you You thought that I would stay this time I flipped the script on you
