The Past and Present

Maybe he was wrong but then she fooled him all along, he was the best she had.
"Get even right away" that was her mantra for the day, he wasn't good or bad.
She asked me for a dance and "yes I'd love to but I can't" was what I meant to say
Before the words came out, I was already at her house, I guess I'll have to stay.
Leave it, why don't you leave it?
I can't believe it has been so long
Tell me, why don't you tell me?
It's just as well these days are gone.
He would never know, and though I would she swears he won't; it was a small mistake
You really can't blame me but I'm fairly sure that he has something else to say.
He promises revenge, I should've tried to make amends and we should end this here.
I'd apologize but it's too late and I know why, this is goodbye my dear.
Leave it, why don't you leave it?
I can't believe it has been so long.
Tell me, why don't you tell me?
It's just as well these days are gone
Everyday now she finds memories when she shuts her eyes.
Since it hurts her to sleep, she stays up all night long forgetting memories with me.
I tried to cut and run that little girl's just so much fun, god help me if it's love
It's nothing of the sort, she'll roll the bass player just for sport, let's sweep under the rug
Leave it, why don't you leave it?
I can't believe it has been so long
Tell me, why don't you tell me?
It's just as well these days are gone
Leave it, why don't you leave it?
I can't believe it has been so long
Tell me, why don't you tell me?
It's just as well these days are gone.
