Standard (EADGBE)

Life was simple way back then

When candy hearts made promises

They used to make you blush

Which always made me smile

But darling how the times have changed

Those sugared words have lost their ways

If only it was simple

As it was back then

I don't want you

Just to love me

For what I do

For what I do

I can't love you

Like I've told you

If only we knew

That love was never meant for me and you

I remember you back then

Your crooked teeth and stupid grin

You always called me lovely

You always seemed to care

But candy hearts, they disappeared

As time went on, your words weren't clear

You said you'd always love me

You said you'd always be there

I don't want you

Just to love me

For what I do

For what I do

I can't love you

Like I've told you

If only we knew

That love was never meant for me and you

I'm sorry dear, I've gone astray

The candy hearts are on their way

They used to make you smile

But now they've made you say

It never was about the words

I listened for the things unheard

But hearts cannot be changed

If words are in the way

I don't want you

Just to love me

For what I do

For what I do

I can't love you

Like I've told you

If only we knew

That love was never meant for me and you

If only we knew

That candy hearts could not make love come true
