[Verse 1]
I just called to say that I miss you, babe
Wonder what you're doin' now
At your favourite place, you go and list the names
Is there one you're leavin' out?
[Chorus]
I'm not sayin' that you're lyin'
But you're leavin' out the truth
And I'm not sayin' that you're guilty
'Cause I don't have any proof
Feelin' like I'm goin' crazy
And I don't know what to do
'Cause on paper, you don't break them
But it hurts so bad the way you bend the rules
[Post-Chorus]
Mmm
The way you bend the rules
Mmm
[Verse 2]
Someone makes you laugh, I can't help but ask
But you won't say what it's about
I pour myself a glass, it won't be the last
Just our medicine for now
[Chorus]
I'm not sayin' that you're lyin'
But you're leavin' out the truth
And I'm not sayin' that you're guilty
'Cause I don't have any proof
Feelin' like I'm goin' crazy
And I don't know what to do
'Cause on paper, you don't break them
But it hurts so bad the way you bend the rules
[Post-Chorus]
Mmm
The way you bend the rules
Mmm
The way you bend the rules
[Chorus]
I'm not sayin' that you're lyin'
But you're leavin' out the truth
And I'm not sayin' that you're guilty
'Cause I don't have any proof
Feelin' like I'm goin' crazy
And I don't know what to do
'Cause on paper, you don't break them
But it's just not fair the way you bend the rules
[Post-Chorus]
Mmm
The way you bend the rules
Mmm
The way you bend the rules
Mmm
The way you bend the rules
Mmm
I just called to say that I miss you, babe
