Little White Lies

One thing that I must have missed
When I first met you
Is that you only meant to love me
Until you found someone new
I guess I should have seen
That you had one foot out the door
Now I don't go down Rampart Street no more

Back in the beginning
You could look me in the eye
Do you really think
That I am just some stupid guy
Cause now you tell your story
As you stare down at the floor
Cause I don't go down Rampart Street no more

I don't wanna go back there
You won't put your hooks in me
I'm all alone tonight
But I'll be alright

You used to get excited
Every time I'd come around
You couldn't wait to sample
What I'd brought you from downtown
Up to your apartment
I'd be knocking on your door
I don't go down Rampart Street no more
No I don't go down Rampart Street no more.

How did I get here
Lyin' in the sunshine
All I have is tears
Watch them as they fall
I'm wishing you were here
This was supposed to be a good time
This was supposed to be our year
Now there's nothing after all.

How did I get here
I guess it doesn't really matter
I try and pass the days
Without you on my mind
Without you next to me
This is feeling like a bad dream
I'm doin' it again
I thought about you one more time

I'm sending out a message via satellite
Where are you tonight my dear
We're all missing you right here
We're lighting you a candle in the dead of night
Where are you tonight my dear
We're all missing you

I'm sending out a message via satellite
Where are you tonight my dear
We're all missing you right
Lighting you a candle in the dead of night
Where are you tonight my dear
We're all missing you

How did I get here
Lyin' in the sunshine
All I have is tears
Watch them as they fall
How did I get here
I guess it doesn't really matter
Try and pass the day
Without you on my mind
Without you next to me
This is feeling like a bad dream
Now I'm doing it again
I thought about you one more time

I saw you yesterday
I was not phased, I did not care
You, you turned and walked away
As if I was not even there

I don't know, you don't know
We don't know why
I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
Like I don't miss you
I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
And I just walk around
With my eyes closed [Repeat: x3]

I don't miss you all that much
Don't miss your kiss, don't miss your touch
I'm so happy to be free
I don't need you, you don't need me

If you don't care, then I don't care
Please tell my why
I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
Like I don't miss you
I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
And I just walk around
With my eyes closed [Repeat: x4]

I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
Like I don't miss you
I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
Like I don't love you

I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
Like I don't miss you
I tell myself these little white lies
These little white lies
And I just walk around
With my eyes closed [Repeat: x8]
