You promised the world and I fell for it I put you first and you adored it Set fires to my forest and you let it burn Sang off-key in my chorus 'cause it wasn't yours I saw the signs and I ignored it Rose-colored glasses, all distorted Set fire to my purpose and I let it burn You got off on the hurting when it wasn't yours, yeah We'd always go into it blindly I needed to lose you to find me This dancing was killing me softly I needed to hate you to love me, yeah To love, love, yeah To love, love, yeah To love, yeah I needed to lose you to love me, yeah To love, love, yeah To love, love, yeah To love, yeah I needed to lose you to love me We'd always go into it blindly I needed to lose you to find me This dancing was killing me softly I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
