I would have bet on us
We were untouchable, you and I
I couldn't get enough
It was a fairytale come to life
I had your heart
At least that's what I thought
Now I'm second-guessing
Every moment
Wondering where we went so wrong
I just keep asking
Would this have been worth it
If I knew the ending all along
What started so perfect
Was over too fast
I should have seen the warning signs
'Cause perfect doesn't last
You got inside my head
Taking up every inch of space
Till there was no room left
So many parts of me erased
You had my heart
And tossed it in the dirt
Now I'm second-guessing
Every moment
Wondering where we went so wrong
I just keep asking
Would this have been worth it
If I knew the ending all along
What started so perfect
Was over too fast
I should have seen the warning signs
'Cause perfect doesn't last
Perfect doesn't last
With my rose-colored glasses on
I never saw it coming
Maybe it's good you're gone
But it still leaves me wanting you
To finally just tell me the truth
'Cause I'm second-guessing
Every moment
Wondering where we went so wrong
I just keep asking
Would this have been worth it
If I knew the ending all along
What started so perfect
Was over too fast
I should have seen the warning signs
'Cause perfect doesn't last
I would have bet on us
We were untouchable, you and I
