You tried to warn me but I couldn't see
That she was makin' such a fool of me
I couldn't take it, so I closed my ears
Never wanted to accept the fears
I never listened to a word you said
I tried to kid myself instead
I never wanted to believe it
(You better open your eyes)
I never wanted to believe it
You said I'd give an inch
She takes a yard
And when I woke up I would find it hard
I'd ask myself so very often why
I couldn't see that you were on my side
I never listened to a word you said
I tried to kid myself instead
I never wanted to believe it
(You better open your eyes)
I never wanted to believe it
You tried to warn me but I couldn't see
Such a fool, I really had to be
I couldn't take it, so I closed my ears
Now I won't let you wipe away my tears
I never listened to a word you said
I tried to kid myself instead
I never wanted to believe it
(You better open your eyes)
I never wanted to believe it
(You better open your eyes)
I never wanted to believe it
(You better open your eyes)
I never wanted to believe it, no, no
