Pude

I could have, said that you're not what I was looking for
And that I only liked you to pass the time and nothing more
I could have, but I don't like lies and I preferred to say that I loved you
Although I understand that I should have kept quiet
I could have just taken you as a game
But I got carried away with your kisses and now I just have to accept

That I could have been more mature or smarter
To realize in time that you wouldn't love me
And know that you just wanted to have fun with me
Or I could have hidden my cards or maybe just lied to you
So you wouldn't get scared and tell you that your love didn't matter to me
And it's so clear that you would still be here
I could have left the cheesy stuff for another relationship
But whenever I give myself, my heart takes over
And that's why even though I could, today I'm left without your love
