lyrics
Listen, you been my shorty for a minute
You say you can't imagine the world without me in it
But that was way, way, way back in the beginning
And these days we tend to do nothin but pretending
I feel the show is coming to a close, take a bow
Ain't no applause, no bouquets, no crowds
We weren't fooling nobody except ourselves
You deserve heaven for putting up with me putting you through hell
You deserve better than this
You deserve better than me
Yeah, I got what you want
But I ain't got what you need
You know I ain't your knight in shining armor
I ain't your prince charming, your Casanova
It was good what we had but now it's over
I'm easy going but I ain't an easy goer
Because you make it hard to leave
Hard to believe you need something better than me
Just want you to see how happy you could be
Just close your eyes and go to sleep and you'll see I ain't the man of your dreams
You deserve better than this
You deserve better than me
Yeah, I got what you want
But I ain't got what you need
I never loved nothing the way I love you
And for you there's nothing that I wouldn't do
But I gotta let you go
Because you deserve so much more
You deserve better than this
You deserve better than me
Yeah, I got what you want
But I ain't got what you need
