NEVER LOVED YOU I woke today, got the message you were gone What did I do wrong? I opened the shades and took a look at the day And I said to myself, "It's probably better this way." You're not the first, and I'm sure you won't be the last I've been through this before; I'll get over it fast Anyway, I'm glad the goodbye didn't last too long, And if nothing else, you gave me the words to a song It's OK 'cause I never loved you Even though I said I did It's OK 'cause I never loved you It was all a lie, everything that I said It's OK 'cause I never loved you Why would I love a woman who would break my heart? From here I'm goin' on to better things You would have stood in my way 'Cause pain is the only thing that love brings Maybe I've finally learned that life is just what it seems And dreams are only dreams It's OK 'cause I never loved you, Even though I said I did It's OK 'cause I never loved you It was all a lie, everything that I said It's OK 'cause I never loved you Why would I love a woman who would break my heart? Who gave you the right? Didn't your momma teach you manners Now I face another lonely night I guess this ended how it began I should have seen the signs, but I'm only a man who's lookin' for love And like everyone else, I see just what I want to be seeing But I'm telling you, next time, I'm the one who'll do the leavin' It's OK 'cause I never loved you Even though I said I did It's OK 'cause I never loved you It was all a lie, everything that I said It's OK 'cause I never loved you Why would I love a woman who would break my heart?
