Not You Lyrics by Destrano

In My Thoughts (Deluxe Edition)

2017

[Pre-Hook]
Is it me or is it you?
Cause I don’t know what I’m to do
I say I love her, but I really don’t
I say I want her, but I really won’t
Is she really it or is she not?
Or is it just another disarray?
An excuse to set my feelings straight
Feeling down on the rainy days
Giving me the signs so it’s time to say

[Hook]
I’m not gonna play this game
Cause everytime it ends the same
You throw around the blame
Just to keep your mind in frame
I can see it in your eyes
You’re not happy
And sadly
It was never you

[Verse 1]
Man I really wish that I had known
So I could leave you in the zone
You stopped sending texts to my phone
So now I’m stuck here all alone
Uh, they say that fortune favors the bold
Until the consequences of your actions unfold
You probably thought that I was sold
But I’ll never open up unless you do the same
That’s why no-one around me is to blame
I don’t know if it’s you or me, and that’s shame
I thought everything was fine until time you came
You treat our love as if it were a game
Caused our relationship too much strain
I think it’s time for you to go
But before you do, I wanna know

[Pre-Hook]
Is it me or is it you?
Cause I don’t know what I’m to do
I say I love her, but I really don’t
I say I want her, but I really won’t
Is she really it or is she not?
Or is it just another disarray?
An excuse to set my feelings straight
Feeling down on the rainy days
Giving me the signs so it’s time to say

[Hook]
I’m not gonna play this game
Cause everytime it ends the same
You throw around the blame
Just to keep your mind in frame
I can see it in your eyes
You’re not happy
And sadly
It was never you
Noooo

[Verse 2]
I know I’m not the best at showing my feelings
But how can I blame myself, when you’re always concealing
Now I’m dreaming about others
A girl who wears dark colors
But in my mind, it might as well be cheating
It ain’t doing my mind any wonders
Always staring at the ceiling
Speeding through it all, try to find some meaning
My thoughts are never dark, but when it is it isn’t pleasing
They say that time is money, and I want to spend mine well
But how can I do that when I’m under your spell
Do you even love me anymore, it’s hard to tell
At this point I might as well make it farewell
But before I do, I wanna know

[Pre-Hook]
Is it me or is it you?
Cause I don’t know what I’m to do
I say I love her, but I really don’t
I say I want her, but I really won’t
Is she really it or is she not?
Or is it just another disarray?
An excuse to set my feelings straight
Feeling down on the rainy days
Giving me the signs so it’s time to say

[Hook]
I’m not gonna play this game
Cause everytime it ends the same
You throw around the blame
Just to keep your mind in frame
I can see it in your eyes
You’re not happy
And sadly
It was never you
Noooo

[Outro]
Never, never, never you...
