Chorus

  I know there won’t be a happy ever after

  This good thing will come to an end

  I don’t let my dreams be my master

  And I’m not sure if we could be friends

  Chorus

  Walking home by myself

  It ain’t easy

  Especially on a sunny day

  What hurts the most

  Is bumping into each other

  And you’ve got nothing to say

  Chorus

  You’re pretty good at lying

  You’re pretty good at telling me you love me

  I never saw it coming

  You’re pretty good

  You’re pretty good
