The Greatest Bastard

I made you laugh, I made you cry

I made you open up your eyes, didn't I?

I helped you open out your wings

Your legs and many other things, didn't I?

Am I the greatest bastard that you know?

The only one who let you go

The one you hurt so much, you cannot bare

We were good when we were good

When we were not misunderstood

You helped me love, you helped me live

You helped me learn how to forgive, didn't you?

I wish that I could say the same but when you left, you left the blame

Didn't you?

Am I the greatest bastard that you met?

The only one you can't forget

Am I the one your truth's been waiting for?

Or am I just dreaming once again?

Some dreams are better when they end

Some make it, mistake it

Some force and some will fake it

I never meant to let you down

Some fret it, forget it

Some ruin and some regret it

I never meant to let you down

We learn to wag and tuck our tails

We learn to win and then to fail, didn't we?

We learn that lovers love to sing

And that losers love to cling, didn't we?

Am I the greatest bastard that you know?

When we learn to let this go

We fought so much, we've broken all the charm

But letting go is not the same

As pushing someone else away

So please don't let on

You don't know me

Please don't let on

I'm not here

Please don't let on

You don't love me

'Cause I know you do

I know

That some make it, mistake it

Some force and some will fake it

I never meant to let you down

Some fret it, forget it

Some ruin and some regret it

I never meant to let you down

I never meant to let you

I never meant to let you down

I never meant
