(Verse 1) You looked like a safe place A house with every light on So I laid my heart beside you Before I knew what love was You said forever softly Like it couldn’t disappear I believed every promise ’Cause I had nothing else to hear (Pre-Chorus) Maybe I was too young Maybe I was too blind Maybe I just wanted Someone to call mine (Chorus) I didn’t know any better I thought love wasn’t supposed to hurt I thought forever meant forever Not another lesson learned You walked away so easy While I carried every scar Don’t blame the kid I used to be For trusting who you are If I could go back, maybe I’d be stronger But I didn’t know any better (Verse 2) Now every little memory Feels heavier than stone The places that we laughed in Feel emptier alone You found another story I got stuck inside the end Trying to understand How strangers happen to best friends (Pre-Chorus) Now I read the warning signs That I couldn’t see before Funny how they shine so bright After someone shuts the door (Chorus) I didn’t know any better I thought love wasn’t supposed to hurt I thought forever meant forever Not another lesson learned You walked away so easy While I carried every scar Don’t blame the kid I used to be For trusting who you are If I could go back, maybe I’d be stronger But I didn’t know any better (Bridge) Maybe one day I’ll forgive The version of me that stayed The one who kept on fighting For someone already gone away I’ll stop asking what I did Stop wondering if I’m enough Some hearts don’t break because they’re weak They break because they loved too much (Final Chorus) I didn’t know any better So I gave you everything Every hope and every heartbeat Every little dream I’d sing Now the only thing I’m holding Is the silence that you left But I’d rather lose my innocence Than never learn what love is yet So I’ll cry until tomorrow And heal a little every day I didn’t know any better… But I know better now.
