I loved a boy, he hated me We barely speak, he doesn't see, like I do But it's better anyway I gave my all, he hated that Took him a while to text me back, what did I do? But it's better anyway (you make it sound easy) But why can't you give me the time, give me the time Give me the time I need? But why can't you give me the time, give me the time Give me the time I need? (Ooh) I loved a boy, he knew me well First he was great, could never tell We'd be through in a month or two I took a chance, we weren't the same What'd you expect? He ran away They all do, saying, "It's me, not you" But why can't you give me the time, give me the time (ooh) Give me the time I need? But why can't you give me the time, give me the time Give me the time I need? Because it's easy to say that it wasn't right Can you admit that you wasted my time? But why can't you give me the time, give me the time Give me the time I need? (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh) I loved a boy, he was the one Thought we would last forever, but now we're done
