Lyrics
[instrumental intro]
[intro]
I gave my all for just a glance,
Hoping for more in this dance,
Left to linger in his praise,
Now I’m lost in a maze.
[Verse 1]
Never forced, just too willing,
His words, so thrilling,
Weeks turned into aching pain,
Left me stranded in the rain.
[Chorus: Emotional build]
Played me like a fool,
In his cruel, cruel school,
All my efforts spent,
Now they're tinged with regret.
My heart led me astray,
But it won’t lead me today,
Spirit broken, yet still unbeaten.
[Verse 2]
I was always on the go,
Now I’m feeling so low,
Should’ve seen the signs, honey,
But he let me down, oh so slow.
[instrumental bridge]
[Bridge]
Gave it my all,
Poured out my soul,
But he wasn’t keen,
Missed what I could’ve been.
[Chorus: Emotional build]
Played me like a fool,
In his cruel, cruel school,
All my efforts spent,
Now they're tinged with regret.
My heart led me astray,
But it won’t lead me today,
Spirit broken, yet still unbeaten.
[Outro: Gentle guitar and strings fade out]
I’ll find a job that sees,
All the potential in me,
Overqualified from the start,
Now I’m mending my heart.
He missed the best thing,
I could’ve been his queen,
But now I’ll rise and shine,
And leave this pain behind.
[break]
[Chorus: Emotional build]
Played me like a fool,
In his cruel, cruel school,
All my efforts spent,
Now they're tinged with regret.
My heart led me astray,
But it won’t lead me today,
Spirit broken, yet still unbeaten.
[break]
[Verse 2]
I was always on the go,
Now I’m feeling so low,
Should’ve seen the signs, honey,
But he let me down, oh so slow.
[instrumental bridge]
[Bridge]
Gave it my all,
Poured out my soul,
But he wasn’t keen,
Missed what I could’ve been.
[Chorus: Emotional build]
Played me like a fool,
In his cruel, cruel school,
All my efforts spent,
Now they're tinged with regret.
My heart led me astray,
But it won’t lead me today,
Spirit broken, yet still unbeaten.
[Outro: Gentle guitar and strings fade out]
I’ll find a job that sees,
All the potential in me,
Overqualified from the start,
Now I’m mending my heart.
He missed the best thing,
I could’ve been his queen,
But now I’ll rise and shine,
And leave this pain behind.
[instrumental bridge]
[Bridge]
Gave it my all,
Poured out my soul,
But he wasn’t keen,
So I left him unseen
[Chorus: Emotional build]
Played me like a fool,
In his cruel, cruel school,
All my efforts spent,
Now they're tinged with regret.
My heart led me astray,
But it won’t lead me today,
Spirit broken, yet still unbeaten.
[Outro: Gentle guitar and strings fade out]
I’ll find someone that sees,
All the potential in me,
To trusting from the start,
Now I’m mending my heart.
He missed the best thing,
I could’ve been his queen,
But now I’ll rise and shine,
And leave this pain behind.
