• Misled me and you know that
    I was too naïve but you knew that
    Fact is you could’ve never really hated
    You know you never should’ve faked it

    Pre Chorus
    We’re swinging hand in hand in moonlight
    Tell me again how I was right
    As we draw our names in chalk on sidewalk
    Meanwhile let your heart talk

    Chorus
    Child games we played in past life
    You pushed me down and said mean things to my face
    Knowing they were never true
    I never knew
    Never could’ve, would’ve dreamed
    Never could’ve, would’ve seen
    You were in love with a girl like me

    As a little girl I wasn’t really too sure
    If you were hiding things or acting immature
    Until I discovered a photo of us
    Holding hands while waiting for the bus

    Pre Chorus
    Lying under streetlights spaced out
    Letting our eyes take a different route
    Intertwine your fingers with mine
    Reminisce back to when we were nine

    Chorus

    Bridge
    Every Band-Aid I earned in the playground
    When you pushed me off the slide and cut my knees
    Now life is turning like a merry-go-round
    Until it finally stops and I stumble into you
    To think I never knew

    Chorus

    Child games (a tactic)
    All just pretend (to hide it)
    You knew (they were never true)
    I never had a clue
    Never could’ve would’ve dreamed
    Never could’ve would’ve seen
    You were always in love
    With a girl like me
