We Were Pirates Little Consolation lyrics

I told you not to worry, everything was alright. But it didn't seem to calm your nerves or leave you satisfied. Somehow you always seem to read me like a book that goes on and on and on and on. Still up until the end I guess I thought I had you fooled. I'd try to smile just right, but it wasn't natural. I couldn't make the muscles in my face look right. It looked wrong. I couldn't tell you that I had moved on, because the last thing that I wanted was to hurt you. I swear I never meant to lead you on, but I guess I had you running ‘round in circles. And I hope you know that wasn't my intention. No it wasn't my intention. I've never been the type to wear my heart on my sleeve. It's nothing new, you've always had to read between the lines. And I suspect you saw it coming, but you chose to play along. I couldn't tell you that I had moved on, because the last thing that I wanted was to hurt you. I swear I never meant to lead you on, but I guess I had you running ‘round in circles. And I hope you know that wasn't my intention. No it wasn't my intention. It wasn't my intention.
