You think I need you around, well you're wrong
Maybe you ought to sit down and hear me out
I can be alone, 'cause lonely's better than only having half of your heart
It just won't do

I've just given up on you
Well, I thought you were true
While you lied about the things you do
So, give me half a chance to show
But darlin' I don't care what you do, but...

Don't, no, don't kid yourself, I'll get along
Don't, no, don't kid yourself
Think before you go
The grip you got might lose its hold on me and my heart
And set it free
There's more to love than what we're going to do

I thought you were true
While you lied about the things you do
So, give me half a chance to show
That darlin' I don't care what you do, but...

Don't, don't kid yourself, I'll get along
Don't, don't kid yourself
I can be alone, 'cause lonely's better than only having
Don't, no, don't kid yourself
Don't, no, don't kid yourself
I thought you were true
While you lied about the things you do
So, don't, no, don't kid yourself, I'll get along
Don't, no, don't kid yourself
