Don't know why I thought you'd save the day, cuz if anything
you were always meant to walk away, away
And I don't know what we're fighting for,
cuz it's not what I want anymore,
I don't know why I thought you'd save the day, the day
(prechorus)
I never loved you anyway,
Just wanted who you promised you could be.
(Chorus)
I wanna feel the sting, of the real thing.
Instead of the false alarm when i was in your arms,
When you left last night, I did my best to cry,
But I never felt that sting,
I'm still waiting on the real thing.
Wooooooooah oh oh, wooooaaahhhh
(verse2)
Baby you don't mean a thing to me, anymore.
Cuz now I gotta reason to believe in waitin for,
A trust that never needs a ring,
the one who tells me everything,
But baby you could never be that for me, for me.
(prechorus 2)
Because you never loved me anyway,
you just wanted who you got to be with me.
(Chorus)
I wanna feel the sting, of the real thing.
Instead of the false alarm when i was in your arms,
When you left last night, I did my best to cry,
But I never felt that sting,
I'm still waiting on the real thing.
(bridge)
I thought it was more than what it was,
you swore we'd never come undone,
but I'll wait a long time if forever's what it takes for something real.
(chorus 2)
I'm still waitin to feel the sting, of the real thing.
Instead of the false alarm when i was in your arms,
When you left last night, I did my best to cry,
But I never felt that sting,
I'm still waiting on the real thing.
I'm waitin, still waitin,
woah oh oh
I'm waitin, still waitin,
I'm waitin on the real thing.
