If you mean it when you say you want the best for me Then I hope you would know that it isn't us I'm sorry I didn't say the things you expected me to say 'Cause you were always the one who couldn't open up You were never gonna want me back Until you knew I was gone Hate to say it doesn't work like that You could feel me moving on No, you didn't even have to ask 'Cause you knew all along Now I'm the one that doesn't want you back (Now I'm the one that doesn't want you back) It's for the best That's what you said Tables turn, now you learn to let me go So let me go Now I mean it when I say I want the best for you And I really hope that you're happier Used to dream about the day you'd say you love me too, but now I don't feel a thing when you say the words You were never gonna want me back Until you knew I was gone Hate to say it doesn't work like that You could feel me moving on No, you didn't even have to ask 'Cause you knew all along Now I'm the one that doesn't want you back (Now I'm the one that doesn't want you back) It's for the best That's what you said Tables turn, now you learn to let me go It's for the best That's what you said Tables turn, now you learn to let me go So let me go You were never gonna want me back Until you knew I was gone Hate to say it doesn't work like that You could feel me moving on No, you didn't even have to ask 'Cause you knew all along Now I'm the one that doesn't want you back (Now I'm the one that doesn't want you back)
