The things you said were not untrue
The things you want were okay too
The things you kept the things you threw away
The things you thought I never knew, they’d stay

The love I showed was partly cold
The things I said were mostly true
The things you did were partly known
The dreams I had will go untold

They say what fate deals, time heals all wounds
Well tell that to my heart that bleeds
'Cause if the hands of fate and time were truly by my side
I could look at you today without crying

The thing I was to you was gone
The thing you were to me was blue
The thing I wanted to unfold in turn
Make paper tigers into gold or burn

The things we said we’d never say
If things get tough we’ll sell them on eBay
