Why Did You Say Yes

Was it too many fights
Too many slips of the tongue
I guess it doesn't really matter what was said
And maybe they were right we were just to young
Or did you burn out like some old cigarette

How could you fade that fast
Cause I ain't a perfect man but girl I gave you all I had
Working doubles never killed me just to pay for that diamond ring
Maybe I should have known when I saw that number on your phone
How did everything we build become such a mess
Girl why did you say yes

Tell me I was wrong and that I just don't understand
And that voice on your machine wasn't there
Did you know all along, was it something that you planned
Cause I'm wondering if you ever even cared

How could you fade that fast
Cause I ain't a perfect man but girl I gave you all I had
Working doubles never killed me just to pay for that diamond ring
Maybe I should have known when I saw that number on your phone
How did everything we build become such a mess
Girl why did you say yes

Yes to another man's tender kisses
Yes to the touch of his finger tips
Yes to the empty promises and broken lies from his lips

Cause I ain't a perfect man but girl I gave you all I had
Working doubles never killed me just to pay for that diamond ring
Maybe I should have known when I saw that number on your phone
How did everything we build become such a mess
Girl why did you say yes
Girl why did you say yes
