Hope Beasley - Assuming Lyrics

I thought you would be different from all the other guys
You weren't
That wasn't a big surprise
I should have known I couldn't trust you
You betrayed me like others have before
But that's nothing new

You never said that you loved me
You never said that you cared
At least you were honest
But it still doesn't seem fair

I assumed you loved me
That's what I get for assuming
You were stringing me along
To you that must've been amusing

But to me it wasn't very funny
All those times you would whisper in my ear
And also call me honey
I can't believe I fell for this old trick again

There should be a law against being heartless
I'm pretty sure it is a sin
If it was a law
You would be imprisoned for life
For those words you never said cut me like a knife

You never said that you loved me
You never said that you cared
At least you were honest
But it still doesn't seem fair

I assumed you loved me
That's what I get for assuming
You were stringing me along
To you that must've been amusing

But to me it wasn't very funny
All those times you would whisper in my ear
And also call me honey
I can't believe I fell for this old trick again

I opened my heart to you
And gave you so very much
Love was in the words I spoke
Love was in my touch
I was wary about loving you
But I gave the benefit of the doubt
I should have went with my instinct
For I knew what you were about

You never said that you loved me
You never said that you cared
At least you were honest
But it still doesn't seem fair

I assumed you loved me
That's what I get for assuming
You were stringing me along
To you that must've been amusing

So next time I'll follow my head
And not with my heart
That is something I should have done all along
Right from the very start

I have assumed many things
That I should have never assumed
But I'll never give up on love
Love for me that seems to be doomed

You never said that you loved me
You never said that you cared
At least you were honest
But it still doesn't seem fair

I assumed you loved me
That's what I get for assuming
You were stringing me along
To you that must've been amusing
But it's not

But it's not
