"You Had Me At Hello"

You Had Me At Hello
By: R.A. Cvetich

I’m supposed to hate you by now,
Should’ve torn all those pictures down.
I should be telling my friends that I deserve better,
Should’ve deleted the voicemails, burned all the letters.
I’m supposed to thank God that you’re gone,
Should have found someone new and already moved on.
After all, you swore you’d never come back.
You kept on going and I’m stuck in your tracks.

CHORUS
It’s not supposed to go this way,
You break my heart and I still want you to stay.
I lifted you up and you let me down,
And I’d still give anything to have you around.
Lies from you were all I heard,
But I’d still believe your every word.
You're the source of every tear I cry.
But you had me at hello,
And you still have me at goodbye.

I should be done crying myself to sleep,
Should've told all your secrets I promised to keep.
I’m supposed to not even care,
Should have forgotten every moment we shared.
I should be telling everyone I know,
How stupid you are for letting me go.
But what killed my soul brought you sweet release.
You broke my heart and still own every piece.

Repeat CHORUS

Bridge
Now someone else has said hello,
But still every night I cry.
Only God knows why,
You’ll have me til the day I die.

Repeat CHORUS
