[VERSE ONE]
I'm at a loss for words
Why do I keep on trying?
When he's only ever dealt out
Disappointment each time
Some sort of constant false magic
I found fixed in his eyes
Rosie with apathy
Ooh stay Rosie don't feel a thing

[Chorus]
But I'm regretfully romantic
And I was fiending to feel that familiar flame
Your brand of heartache
Is easy for me to shrug away
But why would you whisper I love you?
And then surely return to your old ways
Baby love, you should have made a memory
A bittersweet naivety
Bittersweet naivety

[VERSE TWO]
I guess I gotta set her up for disaster
'Cause for me it's so еasy to be the victim
I nevеr entertain-ed the blame
I'm sipping so on something strong and simple
Falling for you, I'm so careless and graceful
Not a doubt in my mind you'd be honest with me this time
Oh, well maybe just a few
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm unreasonably romantic
And I was fiending just to feel that familiar flame
Boy, your brand of heartache
Should be easy for me to shrug away, yeah
But why would you whisper I love you?
And then surely return to your old ways, ah
Baby love, you should have made a memory
A bittersweet naivety
Bittersweet naivety

[BRIDGE]
For a decade of days I didn't ask for much
But to let me get to know you, in a way
That nobody has even tried to understand you
Before I'm throwing punches for you
Don't you see that?
When you told me you won't leave and I believed it
But now I'm over breaking my own heart
In order to get caught up in exploring a better notion
You don't open up
I've given up on this [?]
I'd rather care to love than loving songs about you
But I promise myself this is the conclusion

[OUTRO]
I'm at a loss for words
I gotta stop denying
That he'll only ever deal out
Disappointment each time
I'll never forgive myself for feeling so recklessly hopeful
Here's your overture
Goodnight
