Left the door open in case you would knock
But you never did (you never did)
Thought I could forget you if I got too drunk
But I never did (I never did)
So, I took a bargain, and I threw out food
But everything everywhere reminds me of you
Wish this love could undo

Why’d I believe it when you crossed your heart
I should’ve known better I should’ve ran far
But I played along out of fear you would leave
Then I couldn’t pick up what you left of me
Swore that I’d never end up as the girl screaming Dear John
So Why Danny?

Couldn’t meet your standards
So I lowered mine what was it all for?
The bar’s on the floor
You called a new girl and I called my mom Screaming I just can’t do this
At the top of my lungs she knew sooner or later That this day would come asking
Why’d I believe it when you crossed ur heart
I should’ve known better I should’ve ran far
But I played along out of fear you would leave Then I couldn’t pick up what you left of me
Swore that I’d never end up as the girl screaming Dear John so Why Danny?
