Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Put my hair up, did my make up
Fifteen minutes in the mirror 'cause you said
That tonight was the night you were gonna back in town
[Verse 2]
Little nervous, it's been a while since
The day you left and we didn't, but we almost did
And it's all that I can think about
[Verse 3]
You said the band goes on at nine
You had me high on butterflies
Then I saw the girl standing by your side
Had to smile so I wouldn't cry
[Verse 4]
And I don't know what hurts the worst
Me alone or you with her
Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were
[Verse 5]
Or the way her hand was in your hand
Like I wanted mine to be
Or standing in the brand new dress I bought
'Cause I thought it was gonna be me
[Verse 6]
I try to sneak out, felt like such a fool
You came runnin', said, "It's so good to see you
Meet my girl, yeah, think you're gonna get along"
[Verse 7]
I had to sit there and be polite
Wanted to hate her but she's so damn nice
She made you happy, I could see in your eyes
Had to smile so I wouldn't cry
[Verse 8]
And I don't know what hurts the worst
Me alone or you with her
Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were
[Verse 9]
Or the way her hand was in your hand
Like I wanted mine to be
Or standing in the brand new dress I bought
'Cause I thought it was gonna be me
[Verse 10]
Should've told you, should've told you
Only got myself to blame
Should've kissed you, should've kissed you
Now it's too late
Guess it's too late
I really thought it was gonna be me, yeah
[Verse 11]
And I don't know what hurts the worst
Me alone or you with her
Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were
[Verse 12]
Or the way her hand was in your hand
Like I wanted mine to be
Or standing in the brand new dress I bought
'Cause I thought it was gonna be me
[Verse 13]
I really thought it was gonna be me
I really thought it was gonna be me
I really thought it was gonna be me
I really thought it was gonna be me
