Your kisses tasted like coffee and you never quite let me in
You said I'll talk to ya soon my dear but I fear I'll never see you again
Your charm was that you were quiet and your downfall was your own eyes
They gave you away everytime you would say something sweet I knew you were just getting by
I know you were just getting by
It wasn't my fault, my fault I put up with your flaws
It wasn't my fault my fault you kept me in the dark
I was walking on eggshells biting my tongue scared if I said too much I'd make you run
But you can't make somebody leave when they're already gone
We were driving to that old book store
Ya we went there quite a bit when I noticed you weren't singing in the car like you usually did
Your body was solid and easy to hold but your heart was a mess, caged up and locked up and shut off from anything deeper than license to kiss
It wasn't my fault, my fault I put up with your flaws
It wasn't my fault my fault you kept me in the dark
I was walking on eggshells biting my tongue scared if I said too much I'd make you run
But you can't make somebody leave when they're already gone
Yeah I checked out long before you left town and I'll admit that
I didn't wanna get hurt
But you checked out long before I had time to put up my walls like you
I wasn't cold like you
And now I'm the one thats sitting here
It wasn't my fault, my fault I put up with your flaws
It wasn't my fault my fault you kept me in the dark
I was walking on eggshells biting my tongue scared if I said too much I'd make you run
But you can't make somebody leave when they're already gone
