Met you at the dance not so long ago.

Turned her down but gave me a chance.

So I wrapped my arms around your neck.

Your hands on my hips as we swayed to the rhythm.

I didn't feel a thing but said I did.

You said all the right things

That I wanted to hear.

Showed me what I wanted,

But never could get.

And all I ever did

Was return false feelings.

I said goodnight

And you called me babe.

Butterflies erupted

But it was all in vain.

I knew it wouldn't last

When you asked about the future.

My mind said yes

but I knew the answer was no.

You said all the right things

That I wanted to hear.

Showed me what I wanted,

But never could get.

And all I ever did

Was return false feelings.

I asked you to call me so late one night.

It was gonna be the end,

But I couldn't get it out.

I said goodbye with regret on my mind.

I didn't want to break your heart

But I couldn't let it get too far.

Make you believe you actually had a chance,

When in reality you just filled the space

You made all these plans,

And I agreed without voicing my doubts.

I walked around like I had nothing to hide,

But it was all eating me alive.

I had to get out before I just shut down.

You said all the right things

That I wanted to hear.

Showed me what I wanted,

but never could get.

And all I ever did

was return false feelings.

False feelings

Things I never should have said.

False feelings

Staying up too late just to feed you lies.

False feelings

All I ever did was return false feelings.

*This is a 'song' that I wrote about talking to a guy who I didn't actually like. If you read the lyrics, then you understand that I gave him a chance based off of him saying the right things when in reality he had no chance. I felt like crap when I told him I didn't like him, but I felt more free I guess after I did. I also told him that I was just having false feelings when I broke it off, so that's why I used that.

This has been in my drafts for a while and I never posted it, but I felt that it was okay to share it now. Umm...This is really long now, so just please vote!!
Thank you so much for reading!
