Lyrics

What a surprise
I thought I'd never hear from you again
You left me with tears in my eyes
When you told me that you didn't want this anymore
Your actions spoke louder than words
Your silence I heard
The only thing worse is hearing you now
Plant your seeds of doubt
When the love I found is on solid ground
Why is it, now that I'm in love
And found someone, now you want me
The way you know I used to want you
But it's too late because we're through
Why is it, someone else had to love me
For you to see all that I could be
This love for me has no meaning
And when you find it you'll never ever let it go
Now that things are good
You're telling me you could
Be understanding of the things you should've understood
Sorry but I'm not who you knew when you broke my heart in two
Your actions spoke louder than words
Your silence I heard
The only thing worse is hearing you now
Plant your seeds of doubt
When the love I found is on solid ground
Why is it, now that I'm in love
And found someone, now you want me
The way you know I used to want you
But it's too late because we're through
Why is it, someone else had to love me
For you to see all that I could be
This love for me has no meaning
And when you find it you'll never ever let it go
Don't wanna remember all the pain caused
Don't wanna think about how I gave you my all
And I could have had anything you asked of me
But it wasn't enough
Don't wanna disappoint you
But don't waste your time on me
'Cause love's got a hold of my heart, body, soul and mind
So there's no need to call me anymore
If you're looking for the love we had
Don't live here anymore
Why is it, now that I'm in love
And found someone, now you want me
The way you know I used to want you
But it's too late because we're through
Why is it, someone else had to love me
For you to see all that I could be
This love for me has no meaning
And when you find it you'll never ever let it go
Baby, I'm good, yeah
Said I'm good now
Hope you find somebody to love you like I did
