I remember when your heart depended on me What was perfect for you, was perfect for me If something happened we could shake it off Like we were cut from the same cloth And I remember when your heart depended on me Now you’re tellin’ everyone You’ve made it on your own Oh but who’s the one who loved you when you couldn’t be loved Who took you higher than the moon above Oh I gave you everything that I could give and yet How quickly you forget Oh yeah I recall all the time you took the credit I thought you were God’s gift but I was only offended Maybe I was wrong and a little naive To think you’d ever take advantage of me I recall all the time you took the credit Now you’re tellin’ everyone You’ve made it on your own Oh but who’s the one who loved you when you couldn’t be loved Who took you higher than the moon above Oh I gave you everything I could give and yet How quickly you forget Now you’re tellin’ everyone You’ve made it on your own Oh but who’s the one who loved you when you couldn’t be loved Who took you higher than the moon above Oh I gave you everything I could give and yet, oh But who’s the one who loved you when you couldn’t be loved Who took you higher than the moon above Oh I gave you everything that I could give and yet How quickly you forget Oh yeah Oh yeah I remember when your heart depended on me
