I Don't Need You
The Pierces · The Pierces [2000]
But I could be better
You'll bring the wine
And I'll read your letter
I on my own
Feel like a liar
I'm almost home
But I'm getting tired,
Never could look back
Never would look back
Because
I don't need you
And you don't need me
I don't need you
You don't need me
Yeah,.
I said goodbye
But I just regret it
Let's make things right
But you'll never let it
Never could look back
Never would look back
I don't need you
And you don't need me
I don't need you
You don't need me
Yeah,.
I,..
(I don't need you)
Don't,.
(You don't need me)
Need,..
(I don't need you)
You,.
(You don't need me)
I don't need you
You don't need me
