Lyrics
Verse 1
You came along when my heart was empty
You filled me up with your poetry and song
But somehow somewhere I lost your attention
And so I asked you, 'Have I done something wrong?"
Verse 2
But you assured me, "Darlin not to worry"
There is no one, no place you'd rather be
But now I see, your words they were misspoken
And now I see, your heart was not with me
Chorus
And were you just saying what I wanted to hear?
Were you just hoping I'd never shed another tear?
Were you just thinking I was naive enough?
Well that was anything but just love
Anything but love
Verse 3
The saddest thing I have had to witness
Is how easily I believed what I was told
I really should've seen this moment coming
I guess I would've if I'd listened to my soul
Chorus
And were you just saying what I wanted to hear?
Were you just hoping I'd never shed another tear?
Were you just thinking I was naive enough?
Well that was anything but just love
Anything but love, anything but love
Bridge
I know you're used to doing whatever helped you to survive
But I have too much self-respect to open up and let you back inside...
Chorus
And were you just saying what I wanted to hear?
Were you just hoping I'd never shed another tear?
Were you just thinking I was naive enough?
Well that was anything but just love
And all I wanted was a just love
But that was anything but love
Anything but love
Anything but love
