The Nice Guy

I almost thought I made you up Didn't think that I was good enough I should've known I should have known But everything was perfect, felt A love affair unparalleled The story goes The story goes But you were playing games with me Hid your true colors, let me seek Was that all I was back then An arcade prize for you to win So cross your T's And dot your I's And try to sound sincere this time Convincing everyone that you're still the nice guy Fool me once And fool me twice Look past me as I start to cry I should've seen all along that you weren't the nice guy I still wish I could forget The face you made right as you left Me alone All alone It was cold and hard and grey Like the pavement as you drove away Made out of stone Out of stone But you were playing games with me Hid your true colors, let me seek Beneath the charm and Christmas lights You really weren't the nicest guy So cross your T's And dot your I's And try to sound sincere this time Convincing everyone that you're still the nice guy Fool me once And fool me twice Look past me as I start to cry I should've seen all along that you weren't the nice guy You moved like clockwork Your cold words Cut clean You were well practiced Silently laughing At me So cross your T's And dot your I's And try to sound sincere this time Convincing everyone that you're still the nice guy Fool me once And fool me twice Look past me as I start to cry I should've seen all along that you weren't the nice guy
