i know for sure you loved me; you told me as such
my love for you was as the stars, i loved you oh so much
but then you up and left me, without a second glance
you told me that you hated me, you gave me not a chance
and now
butterflies seem a little bit dimmer now (now that you're gone)
this hole in my heart seems a little bit bigger now (now that you're gone)
i know i wish you'd never left; i know i wish i could have you back
it's hard for me to write this song - now that you're gone
i'm pretty sure you loved me; it's hard for me to find
but you sure as hell didn't love me when i stepped out of line
you treated me like garbage, you told me i was wrong
i wanted you to love me, but we couldn't get along
and now
butterflies seem a little bit dimmer now (now that you're gone)
this hole in my heart seems a little bit bigger now (now that you're gone)
i know i wish you'd never left; i know i wish i could have you back
it's hard for me to write this song - now that you're gone
i don't know if i loved you, don't know if you loved me
'cause when i opened up to you, you told me just to leave
you told me i was off to hell, and now i don't know why
but every time i see your face, i feel like i should cry
but still
butterflies seem a little bit dimmer now (now that you're gone)
this hole in my heart seems a little bit bigger now (now that you're gone)
i know i wish you'd never left; i know i wish i could have you back
it's hard for me to write this song
i miss you, you know
the words you used to sing to me are poison to my ever-aching throat
i miss you, you know
but after what you said to me, i shouldn't feel a thing for you, i don't
and still
butterflies seem a little bit dimmer now (now that you're gone)
this hole in my heart seems a little bit bigger now (now that you're gone)
i know i wish you'd never left; i know i wish i could have you back
it's hard for me to write this song
butterflies seem a little bit dimmer now (now that you're gone)
this hole in my heart seems a little bit bigger now (now that you're gone)
i know i wish you'd never left; i know i wish i could have you back
it's hard for me to write this song - now that you're gone
