I was the one

I was the one who tried to pick you up

But the other one was waiting

I could not afford to be stood up

Right as you call

Right as you call "I have to get my stuff"

Don’t defend the decision

Or pretend it didn’t happen to us

Just before I could go

She would run run run run run run run

She was the one

She was the one who tried to break us

One who tried to take us apart

She was the one

Before the fun had even begun

And I hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

All the time time time

Hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

All the time time time time time time time

But forgiving is fun

Over the nights I knew that she was the one

I get my day book open just to angle for a coffee with someone

But she’ll never fall (in love)

She’ll never fall in love with one of us

She’s the time to keep us thinking

All along that we’ve got things worked up

Just before all I saw

I could run run run run run run

She was the one

She was the one who tried to break us

One that tried to take us apart

She was the one

Before the fun had even begun

And I hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

All the time time time

Hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

All the time time time time time time time

You and I both know that’s real enough to let it go

But still

We’ve got things all thinking all the time

Enough to talk about

And you know why things go wrong

She was the one

She was the one who tried to break us

One who tried to take us apart

Yeah she was the one

Before the fun had even begun

And I hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

All the time time time

Hardly think about her

Hardly think about her

All the time time time time time time time

I think that she was the one

I think that she was the one
