lyrics

I like talking to you
But I don't know how I feel
And I don't know If I can deal
With feeling anything right now
I like being with you
But I don't know what's up your sleeve
And I'd rather be the first to leave
If someone's gonna do it

Maybe you'll treat me like gold
But I don't know if I feel
Like I'm worth it
I'm used to being treated like dirt
And this is unfamiliar territory
It's hard to let go of the old ways
But if you're gonna treat me this way
Maybe it's finally time for me to stay

It's hard to believe
That you really mean what you say
Cause everyone seems to act this way
Before they disappear
And my trust's getting weak
I'm growing tired of seeing the best
In someone who left without
The courtesy to say goodbye

So maybe you'd treat me like gold
But I don't think you know gold when you see it
You had your chance and then
I watched you leave it
And I'm tired of being disappointed
It's hard to let go of the old ways
But if you're gonna treat me this way
Baby it's time for me
To walk away

So when you see me
Please don't be surprised
If I don't meet your eyes
Cause It's been a long year
And I don't have the time to spend
On prolonged endings
