Foolish Heart

Thought I'd found my dream girl and felt like the king of the world
It meant everything to me, but was a fling to this girl
Gave her all my love and she wouldn't even give me her time
Welcome to this foolish heart of mine

I really thought one day you would be a wife to me
You preferred attention from a lot of men, than spending a life with me
I gave you my whole heart, but you preferred posting pics for likes and retweets
You hurt me a lot, but I thank you for the strength you provided to me

You said I was everything you wanted in a man
When you started falling, I helped you to stand
I gave you all of me, but you always expected more
I guess that means I was never yours

I'd say I hate you but that would be lie
I just don't like you much
I'd laugh it off even if I want to cry
Can't believe I thought I'd be the one to wife you up

My love and attention wasn't enough, you were posting half naked pics online
I guess your love wasn't deserving of mine
I don't mean that to sound cocky
But I'm glad you messed up and lost me

Thought I'd found my dream girl and felt like the king of the world
It meant everything to me, but was a fling to this girl
Gave her all my love and she wouldn't even give me her time
Welcome to this foolish heart of mine
