Lyrics

I GUESS I WAS RIGHT

Before I met you I had it all sussed
There wasn?t a woman that I?d ever trust
And giving your heart out just wasn?t too bright
And now that you left me
I guess I was right

Before I met you , I always believed
That only a fool wore his heart on his sleeve
I never believed in a love at first sight
And now that you left me
I guess I was right

Chorus
It?s just another broken dream
Just another broken vow
It?s just another broken heart
I should be used to it by now

Before I met you I thought life was cruel
And lovers and dreamers were nothing but fools
I never thought love was for more than a night
And now that you left me
I guess I was right

Before I met you I thought I was too clever
To believe all that nonsense that love is forever
Thought I?d never be hurt and I was so strong
And now that you left me
I guess I was wrong

Chorus
It?s just another broken dream
Just another broken vow
It?s just another broken heart
I should be used to it by now
It?s just another broken heart
I should be used to it by now
