You and me we made a vow For better or for worse I can't believe you let me down But the proof is in the way it hurts For months on end I've had my doubts Denying every tear I wish this would be over now But I know that I still need you here You say I'm crazy 'Cause you don't think I know what you've done But when you call me baby I know I'm not the only one You've been so unavailable Now sadly I know why Your heart is unobtainable Even though you don't share mine You say I'm crazy 'Cause you don't think I know what you've done But when you call me baby I know I'm not the only one I have loved you for many years Maybe I am just not enough You've made me realize my deepest fear By lying and tearing us up You say I'm crazy 'Cause you don't think I know what you've done But when you call me baby I know I'm not the only one You say I'm crazy 'Cause you don't think I know what you've done But when you call me baby I know I'm not the only one
