You said that you would not have me last summer
and you said that you would not have me last spring
but i hoped that you would change your mind by august
especially when i bought that diamond ring
but you still said no, you wouldn't have me
you wouldn't have me
you still said no, no, no
i heard that you've been sleeping with your old friends
and i heard when each one left and broke your heart
i told you then that i would never leave you
and i told you that i loved you from the start
you still said no
you would not have me
you still said no, no, no
even though you haven't any answers
still think that you don't need anyone
to save you from the mess that you've created
and even when i gave my only song
you still said no
you wouldn't have me
you still said no, no, no
