Lyrics
The One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So young, naïve, when we took the leap
Wanted to be everything you wanted
One house, two cars, three years for us
I don't think you know how good you got it
You painted me a picture
I really tried to be her
And I cried a river for you
You think you got it so hard
I think you got a cold heart
Wanna hear the worst part? Do you?
If I'm not the one, good luck finding something better
Give you all my love, are you crazy? Boy, you
Better recognize that you're wasting all my time
If I'm not the one
You talk so tough, sit down, grow up
I don't need this foolishness around me
'Cause it's my house, my life, and you kill my vibe
Now I know I'll never make you happy
So let me paint a picture
I'm tired of trying to fix ya
I'm not crying a river for you
If I'm not the one (the one), good luck finding something better
Give you all my love, are you crazy? Boy, you
Better recognize that you're wasting all my time (time)
If I'm not the one
One
One
If I'm not the one for you, good luck
Finding better love won't be enough
You're all out of time, you're wasting mine, boy
If I'm not the one (one)
If I'm not the one, good luck finding something better (baby)
Give you all my love, are you crazy? Boy, you
Better recognize that you're wasting all my time (time)
If I'm not the one
If I'm not the one (one, oh baby)
(If I'm not the one for you, good luck)
Good luck finding something better
Give you all my love, are you crazy? Boy, you
(Finding better love won't be enough)
Better recognize that you're wasting all my time
(You're all out of time, you're wasting mine, boy)
If I'm not the one
