He called me up
Just last week, same old voice, so soft so sweet
Said he found himself a wife
He's got a whole new life
Oh, Nathaniel, you never loved me
What I was to do?
You held on to me so tightly
On that sunny afternoon
Oh, Nathaniel
What could I do?
You may have never loved me
But I will always love you
I never knew that was what you wanted
But I guess it was what you done needed
I always thought one day you'd come back
Your crooked smile would light up all this black
Oh, Nathaniel, you never loved me
What I was to do?
You held on to me so tightly
On that sunny afternoon
Oh Nathaniel
What could I do?
Oh Nathaniel
Your eyes were so blue
You may have never loved me, but I will always love you
Cause sometimes when you set your lovers free
You get stung with a "never meant to be"
