Amateur

I'm told the case is now closed

So I can come to my senses

But when the question is posed

I'll have this meager defense

[Chorus]

I was hoping that you'd know better than that

I was hoping but you're an amateur

I was hoping that you'd know better

But I've been wrong before

Despite conclusions I drew

There was a chance you'd surprise me

And you'd be better than you

Cause I'd have left otherwise

[Chorus]

So I wasn't thinking clearly

So you didn't think at all

I thought was protocol

[Chorus]

I was hoping that,

I was hoping but you're an amateur

I was hoping that you'd know better

But I've been wrong before
