the one

You weren't the one that I broke up with when your truck had broke down
You weren't the one that I strung along and didn't hang around
You weren't the one that I dated while you dated your boyfriend
You weren't the one that I tell my bitter tales of how it ends

You were the one that I kept
You were the one that never left
You were the one that had it all
You were the one that wasn't strange
You were the one that played my games
You were the one after the fall

You weren't the one that broke my heart the day before exams
You weren't the one that left me behind for another man
You weren't the one that I pined over but never did I date
You weren't the one that was 10 bucks short and 15 days too late

[Bridge]

You weren't the one that called me 50 times when I'm not home
You weren't the one that I couldn't reach when I called on the phone
You weren't the one that went psycho trying to steal all of my things
You weren't the one that only considered me one of your flings

You were the one that I kept
You were the one that never left
You were the one that had it all
You were the one that wasn't strange
You were the one that played my games
You were the one after the fall

You are the one who has stuck with me through all my thick and thin
You are the one who knows when to play games or let me win
You are the one who is my light, the most beautiful of all
You are the one who knows the little things are never all that small

You were the one that I kept
You were the one that never left
You were the one that had it all
You were the one that wasn't strange
You were the one that played my games
You were the one after the fall
