Lola - i learned that the hard way Lyrics

I really wanna love you
Really, I've tried hard to
But I just don't know why I can't
I really wanna hold you
I'd do anything for you
Cnd that's why I don't understand
Why I'm not feelin' that way about you
Why it's so hard to read my mind
I didn't mean to lead you on

I guess I should've gone and told you how I felt
But I was scared I'd change my mind

I didn't mean to lead you on
I wanted you to stay
'Cause in your arms I felt so safe
I didn't think that there would be a consequence
But I learned that the hard way

I want you to hold me
But now that you have told me
I feel like we can't do that
I wish that we could move on
But still be friends and so long
'Cause I can't just say goodbye like that

I guess that I was just bein' selfish
Not lovin' you but not wanting anyone else to have you, baby
I didn't think it'd end so badly
But now I'm sittin' here and cryin'

I didn't mean to lead you on
I wanted you to stay
'Cause in your arms I felt so safe
I didn't think that there would be a consequence
But I learned that the hard way

What was I thinkin' when I didn't tell you
I didn't feel the way that you did
I just didn't know how to feel
What was I doing when I waited so long to tell you that?
Now I think it's too late to tell you I want you back

I didn't mean to lead you on
I wanted you to stay
'Cause in your arms I felt so safe
I didn't think that there would be a consequence
But I learned that the hard way
