Cannonball Adderley – Nothin' lyrics
when it adds up to nothin'
It makes you wonder why you try
Stunned and numb left wondering why when
The truth is cruel, the lies turn white
I called and couldn't reach you, I got too hung up
I'm a phase that you've outgrown,
Lying in the darkness all alone
You got a fake i.d. and somewhere else to be with someone who isn't me
Tell yourself it meant something,
Used to mean a lot to me
Something died, just the pain survived
When I got tired of crying i dried my eyes
Burn the bridges that you must,
Past to ashes, trust to dust, empty loneliness and lust
Love wasn't enough, trust wasn't enough
I believed what you said was true, ever always only you
Just another broken trust, nothing's forever
I believe what you said was true
It wasn't enough
I believe that you meant it too
It wasn't enough 'cause your promise means nothin'
Much less than nothin', 'cause you left me with nothing now
It makes you wonder why you try
Stunned and numb left wondering why when
The truth is cruel, the lies turn white
I called and couldn't reach you, I got too hung up
I'm a phase that you've outgrown,
Lying in the darkness all alone
You got a fake i.d. and somewhere else to be with someone who isn't me
Tell yourself it meant something,
Used to mean a lot to me
Something died, just the pain survived
When I got tired of crying i dried my eyes
Burn the bridges that you must,
Past to ashes, trust to dust, empty loneliness and lust
Love wasn't enough, trust wasn't enough
I believed what you said was true, ever always only you
Just another broken trust, nothing's forever
I believe what you said was true
It wasn't enough
I believe that you meant it too
It wasn't enough 'cause your promise means nothin'
Much less than nothin', 'cause you left me with nothing now
