Victim to Charm

Dear, don’t be alarmed
As I trace the freckles on your porcelain arms
Did you ever think you’d be victim to charm
So cheap and untrue
How did you think you’d get off
Pass me with a smile while you’re walking your dog
And now I can’t sleep 'cause I know that you’re gone
And you know what you do
Dear, did you know that our days were numbered
A long time ago
Can’t turn back now 'cause I swore it was done
When you walked out the door
Thinking I’d like to say goodbye to you just this once more
But I know, it wouldn’t be the same as before
Boy I hear she’s the one
Crazy how fast you knew once we were done
And now that this speckle bird’s started to run
It won’t ever come home
Tie myself to this room
So I can’t return to my comfortable you
Forget this whole town that reminds me of you
And I won’t go home
Dear, did you know that our days were numbered
A long time ago
Can’t turn back now 'cause I swore it was done
When you walked out the door
Thinking I’d like to say goodbye to you just this once more
But I know, it wouldn’t be the same as before
Oh darling you know
That I would come back if I could just let it go
And so I just pretend
That we can be friends because you did
Wrong and I’m alone
So now, I’ll be alone
Pack up these jealous things outside my home
Forget what you did
'Cause I know that you’re gone
Not the same as before
