The Man I Thought You Were

You're pretty clever
Getting me to fall so fast
I thought I'd never
Be so blind in love that I looked right past

What you said and who you are, yeah, yeah
'Cause what you said and who you are, yeah, yeah
Are two different things, turns out that

I was in love with the man I thought you were
The man who promised he meant every single word
The man who looked me in the eye and told me
He'd never been so sure, yeah
Then took it all back in one day
Guess I really dodged a bullet
'Cause for a moment I was in love
'Cause for a moment I was in love
With the man I thought you were, were
Were, were
The man I thought you

You said my dreams were more
Important to you than yours
You said being next to me felt like home

But what you said and what you did, yeah, yeah
'Cause what you said and what you did, yeah, yeah
Are two different things, turns out that

I was in love with the man I thought you were
The man who promised he meant every single word
The man who looked me in the eye and told me
He'd never been so sure, yeah
Then took it all back in one day
Guess I really dodged a bullet
'Cause for a moment I was in love
With the man I thought you were, were
Were, were
The man I thought you

I count my blessings, every single one
'Cause I almost thought you were everything
Everything you're not, turns out

I was in love with the man I thought you were
The man who promised he meant every single word
The man who looked me in the eye and told me
He'd never been so sure, yeah
Then took it all back in one day
Guess I really dodged a bullet
'Cause for a moment I was in love
With the man I thought you were, were
Were, were
The man I thought you were, were
