Garden Path

i know you know it isn’t so
i couldn’t leave you, but
you bet on tricking me again
next time i won’t believe you
the first time i caught your eye, i felt
like i was leaning
but by now i’ve come to realize
that looks can be deceiving
i’ve been around to see it too many times
i should’ve stopped to read between your lines
i guess i’m just not your type
i planted trees you like to see
and kept them healthy
but when you grew through someone new,
the blossoms bloomed so lonely
i’ve been around to see it too many times
i should’ve stopped to read between your lines
i guess i’m just not your type
i guess i’m just not your type
