Like This
--D Mallett

I wasn't supposed to be like this
You always were the answer to my every wish
Talking about forever with your hand in mine
You and me together 'til the end of time
And leavin' wasn't even on the list
And it wasn't supposed to be like this

You weren't supposed to fall apart
I never even noticed when I broke your heart
Guess I must be crazy standing out here in the cold
I can't stand the thought of going home and growing old
or living one more day without your kiss
And it wasn't supposed to be like this

I must be some kind of fool
For this is all I know
Once you've come so far for love
(There) ain't nowhere else to go

You weren't supposed to see me cry
I didn't come prepared for such a sad good-bye
I was thinking maybe we could start again
(But) now I now that ain't how this story ends
So I'll just turn and go if you insist
But it wasn't supposed to be like this

No, leaving wasn't even on the list
And it wasn't supposed to be like this.
