  • I said I want a future with you, baby, now can you put your head down
    On my lap?
    I looked you in your face, and then I felt something I never really felt before
    That's my bad

    I thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that got away
    I thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that didn't stay
    Thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that got away
    I thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that didn't stay

    Maybe there's a chance if I pray every day, I'ma get what I want to
    I dreamed last night, you're in my head
    You're always sticking with me even when I don't want you
    I'm treating you right, not doing you wrong
    I know you won't forget the night you spent so long
    Looking at my face, my eyes are a maze
    You're talking 'bout that good shit, baby, good shit, baby
    Living far away, that is not okay
    I still know we're a good fit, baby, good fit
    I don't know what to say, but fuck it anyway
    I know we'll have some good kids, baby, good kids

    Oh, I know you love me
    Oh, you push and you shove me out
    Oh, I know you love me
    Oh, you push and you shove me out

    Thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that got away
    I thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that didn't stay
    Thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that got away
    I thought you were the one, ah
    Thought you were the one that didn't stay Writer/s: Thomas Anatole Richman
