Lyrics
[Verse 1]
For the record you oughta know
You wasn't thinkin' when you let me go
But whatever, that's how it goes
Win some, you lose some and others you hold in your heart
[Verse 2]
Why it gets so hard, tears you all apart
Even though you try to let go, no, no, no
Suddenly you're here and it's so surreal
And I don't know what the deal
[Verse 3]
'Cause when I'm lookin' in your eyes
It feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why
We can't just press rewind
[Verse 4]
I don't wanna spend my life thinkin' what it could've been like
If we had another try (One time)
Like back in the day, that look on your face
Feels like the first time
[Verse 5]
Them other irregularities
They can't compete with MC
The whole entire world can tell
That you love yourself some me
[Verse 6]
People see ya now, askin' all about
Me and how they always thought we were so perfect together
Let's rewrite the end, start over again
And it's gon' go better now
[Verse 7]
'Cause when I'm lookin' in your eyes
Feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why
We can't just press rewind
[Verse 8]
I don't wanna spend my life thinkin' what it could've been like
If we had another try, one time
Like back in the day, that look on your face
Feels like the first time
[Verse 9]
And for the record, you'll always be a part of me
No matter what you do
And for the record, can't nobody say
I didn't give my all to you
[Verse 10]
And for the record, I told you underneath the stars
That you belong to me
For the record, it's obvious that we just can't let go of us
Honey
[Verse 11]
'Cause when I'm lookin' in your eyes
Feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why
We can't just press rewind
[Verse 12]
I don't wanna spend my life thinkin' what it could've been like
If we had another try, one time
Like back in the day, that look on your face
Feels like the first time
[Verse 13]
'Cause when I'm lookin' in your eyes
Feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why
We can't just press rewind
[Verse 14]
I don't wanna spend my life thinkin' what it could've been like
If we had another try, one time
Like back in the day, that look on your face
Feels like the first time
[Verse 15]
'Cause for the record, baby
