With nothing gained but a lesson learned
I should walk away and not return
It's plain to see
It's pretty clear what I'm supposed to do
I've heard all the cons and they're all true
It all makes sense to me
Our paths never should have crossed
And in the end not much was lost
It turns out we never had anything at all
But still I wonder if I should call
I've got self-respect and sense in my brains
But they're up against a heart in pain
Can't you see
Keep telling me that I can never win
But with nothing to lose it just won't sink in
It'll never make sense to me
