Problem

Thought I'd be the one walking down the isle
Never thought you had a list all awhile
Of all the little things that I was doing wrong
You started picking stupid fights over nothing
See you didn't like me out with me and my friends
Then you go and say you need your space again when I did everything
It took to be with you, you had your mind made up you wanted better
You made love so hard to do
And nothing's ever good enough
For you, so you let me go
Thinking that the grass was greener
What happened to you?
Why you defensive?
The perfect girl you said
You'll spend your life with
Nothing was a matter than ever was
When you see the problem is you
What happens when you realize it ain't me?
I'm not the one making you unhappy
Now that it's all said and done
Can you face the truth?
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
I heard you threw you clothes out the front door
And the neighbors say you're fighting more and more
How you would have
The same fight 10 years of your life
'Cause if it ain't you, then who's the blame here?
Left me to took the problem everywhere
You and I we were perfect
But you're so bad at love you can't see it
You made love so hard to do
And nothing's ever good enough
For you, so you let me go
Thinking that the grass was greener
What happened to you?
Why you defensive?
The perfect girl you said
You'll spend your life with
Nothing was a matter than ever was
When you see the problem is you
What happens when you realize it ain't me?
I'm not the one making you unhappy
Now that it's all said and done
Can you face the truth?
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
Baby you were the one
That did everything you want
She wouldn't even want you
Wouldn't even have you
I don't even want you anymore
Baby when will you see?
You had the perfect girl in me
But the only problem
The only thing that stopped us
The only thing broken is you
What happened to you?
Why you defensive?
The perfect girl you said
You'll spend your life with
Nothing was a matter than ever was
When you see the problem is you
What happens when you realize it ain't me?
I'm not the one making you unhappy
Now that it's all said and done
Can you face the truth?
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
The only problem we had was you
