Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Once upon a time

I believe it was a Tuesday

When I caught your eye

We caught onto something

I hold onto the night

You looked me in the eye

And told me you loved me

[Verse 2]

Were you just kidding?

'Cause it seems to me

This thing is breaking down

We almost never speak

I don't feel welcome anymore

Baby, what happened, please tell me?

'Cause one second it was perfect

Now you're halfway out the door

[Verse 3]

And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called

And then you feel so low, you can't feel nothing at all

And you flashback to when he said forever and always

Oh, and it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong

It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone

'Cause I was there when you said forever and always

[Verse 4]

Was I out of line?

Did I say something way too honest?

Made you run and hide

Like a scared little boy

I looked into your eyes

Thought I knew you for a minute

Now I'm not so sure

[Verse 5]

So here's to everything

Coming down to nothing

Here's to silence

That cuts me to the core

Where is this going?

Thought I knew for a minute

But I don't anymore

[Verse 6]

And I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called

And then you feel so low you can't feel nothing at all

And you flashback to when he said forever and always

Oh, and it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong

It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone

'Cause I was there when you said forever and always

[Verse 7]

You didn't mean it, baby

I don't think so, oh

[Verse 8]

Oh, back up, baby, back up

Did you forget everything?

Back up, baby, back up

Did you forget everything?

[Verse 9]

'Cause it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong

It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone

'Cause I was there when you said forever and always

[Verse 10]

Oh, I stare at the phone, he still hasn't called

And then you feel so low you can't feel nothing at all

And you flashback to when we said forever and always

And it rains in your bedroom, everything is wrong

It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone

'Cause I was there when you said forever and always

[Verse 11]

You didn't mean it, baby

You said forever and always, yeah
