I know you think you had me on a string
You thought that I would never go away
You thought I was a toy to add to your collection
You didn't understand, I didn't want to play

Chorus:
Someday you'll realize just how much I loved you
Someday you'll understand just how much I care
Someday when you're alone, you'll turn to hear me say I love you
You'll turn around and I won't be there
I won't be there

I know you think that love is just a game
A game that only you can win
When your game is done, you'll realize you haven't won
That's when you'll wish you had me back again

Chorus:
Someday you'll realize just how much I loved you
Someday you'll understand just how much I care
Someday when you're alone, you'll turn to hear me say I love you
You'll turn around and I won't be there
I won't be there

I know you think that I'll be back someday
But I won't be anybody's pawn
Someday you'll reminisce and realize what you have missed
But you'll find your chance for love will all be gone

Chorus:
Someday you'll realize just how much I loved you
Someday you'll understand just how much I care
Someday when you're alone, you'll turn to hear me say I love you
You'll turn around and I won't be there
I won't be there
