She said no, but she meant maybe
She said she wasn’t that type of girl.
When she’d done wrong, she’d never admit it
But I had empty pockets to prove it.
He said no, and he really meant it
He was just that type of guy
When he did wrong, he’d never admit it
But I had black and blue marks to prove it.
She was so much like a foreign language
That you learned but never understood
She said words just didn’t matter
But when she needed them they always would
I’d rather sleep in the streets at night
Or I’d rather not sleep at all
I’m not so sure of my friends these days
Not sure of anything at all
