Lyrics
Finally started looking through you, When I found out what you were doin’ to me. Now, I simply don’t know what to do. But it doesn’t matter, you see. Oh no, we haven’t spoken in six long years, And all I ever wanted was you to call me in tears, And say, “I think my life is driving me crazy And I think I’m going out of my mind. I need some time to find myself. Can’t we just be friends and be kind? Before I say goodbye, I just called so maybe you’ll see It’s not you, it’s me.” You never called back to tell me That the hurt you feel may never heal Why couldn’t it have ended some other way? ‘Cause the silence turned my heart to steel. I guess we were too different; Living in two different worlds. But couldn’t you find a space in your heart Just to call and tell me these words: “I think my life is driving me crazy And I think I’m going out of my mind. I need some time to find myself. Can’t we just be friends and be kind? So, before I say goodbye, I just called so maybe you’ll see It’s not you, it’s me.” You showed me what it’s like To care from deep within and not to always think of myself. You taught me what it means To show ones love; That you just can't say it And then put it on a shelf. Now, it’s too late for me to change. Anyway, you probably thought I never could. I don’t blame you for never calling me up. I’m just happy that our love was once good. And in some distant place in the future, If we see each other in our new lives, I hope you’ll look right back at me With a little look of surprise. And I’d smile back at you in an incredulous way, And looking into your eyes And say, “I know that I was driving you crazy And you were going out of your mind. But we all need to learn to love ourselves. Let’s be friends again and be kind. So, before I say goodbye, I just called so maybe you’ll see It’s not you, oh no. It’s not you, oh no. It’s not you, oh no. It’s not you, oh no. It’s not you, it was me.”
