Devon Halliday - Some Would Say

Baby caught me going through the trash again
I found a couple old receipts suggestive of a one-night stand
But baby said, "You fill your head with fears instead of facts
Honey that hotel bill is our anniversary plans"

I been quiet like the eye of a summer storm
Baby knows that something's brewing, but he can't be sure
He tries to talk, he takes me for a walk, says "Sorry for whatever I did"
But he should know the things he's sorry for
So I don't tell him shit
But I would have said

Your privacy lies to me, it shuts me out
Your kindness is a burden that I can't set down
I love you, in my way
Which is no way at all, some would say

I take to reading all the post-its in his desk
He reminds himself to make me dinner, kiss my head
I hate that he is only sweet for my pure benefit
Me I do those things cuz I just can't resist

When baby showers now he takes along his phone
Curiosity is eating me-I know he knows
I seize my chance when it leaves his hands
His ex is back in touch: "Happy birthday, friend, what's up?"
He said: "Not much"
And then he walks back in

Your privacy lies to me, it shuts me out
Your kindness is a burden that I can't set down
I love you, in my way
Which is no way at all, some would say

Baby's leaving like I always knew he would
I would take back all the times he caught me if I could
He left behind some letters of mine in which I promised to be good
But I can't control myself the way I should

Your privacy lied to me, it shut me out
Your kindness was a privilege and I let you down
But I loved you, in my way
Which is no way at all, some would say
Yeah it ain't love at all, so they say
