It's what I've been singing about since I was 13
I thought I had it figured out but it ain't like the movies
From the 8th grade dance when nobody asked me
Giving in to blue-eyed white lies in
the backseat I wish I knew better,
mmm I wish I knew better
But who knew that love could act like that
That love could be so cruel
That it could turn its back,
making me somebody else's fool
I heard it would give me wings to fly But it just let me fall
I guess I never knew I never knew love at all
Oh, love at all
Maybe meant to be isn't meant for me
People promise forever but they still leave
Who knew that love could act like that
That love could be so cruel
And now I'm just somebody else's fool
I heard it would give me wings to fly
