Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I think it's time that I be honest
Should've told you not to go
Thought I knew just what I wanted
I didn't know myself at all
[Verse 2]
You're with somebody I can't be, yeah
But I can tell that you're happy
[Verse 3]
It's time for me to finally meet somebody new
Take her to all the places that I took us to
And she might help me forget
But loving her is something I could never do
Because I had, because I had you
[Verse 4]
Hey remember when I told you
That you and I, we'd go down in history together, yeah
And does your sister ask about me?
You and I, what we had, is it gone forever?
[Verse 5]
You're with somebody I can't be
But I can tell that you're happy
[Verse 6]
It's time for me to finally meet somebody new
Take her to all the places that I took us to
And she might help me forget
But loving her is something I could never do
Because I had, because I had you
[Verse 7]
There's nothing, oh
There's nothing left to lose
Because I had you, hey
There's nothing, nothing that I could do
I wish I had you, but
[Verse 8]
I think it's time I finally found somebody new
And tell myself that she's the one to get me through
And she might help me forget
But loving her is something I just couldn't do
Because I had you
