Lyrics
0:15He tapped me on my shoulder so unexpected
0:18I started to hug him but paused for a second
0:21And that's when he showed
0:22Me an old picture that he had oh
0:27Then we started talkin and reminiscin
0:30And at first I smiled
0:32Then I started to remember
0:34That my memories of us are all bad
0:39That's when I told him
0:42It took me some time to get over you
0:44Had to wrap my head around what I let you do
0:47I was young I was dumb I played the fool
0:50But one thing today prove
0:53I gave you the best years of your life of your life
0:58Now you wanna get back what you missed
1:01But I cannot forget about what you did
1:05I gave you the best years of your life your life
1:11I gave you yea
1:15I gave you the best years of your life
1:30I ain't gonna lie for a while I was bitter
1:33Acid to my stomach every time I saw you with er
1:36I know she was all those texts and
1:39Late night phone calls late night phone calls
1:42When you had an emergency and rushed out of home
1:45I bet she was on the other side of the phone
1:49Now you stand here
1:50Saying you love me still you don't love me
1:54I guess the grass was greener yea
1:57It took me some time to get over you
1:59Had to wrap my head around what I let you do
2:02I was young I was dumb I played the fool
2:05But one thing today prove
2:08I gave you the best years of your life of your life
2:13Now you wanna get back what you missed
2:16But I cannot forget about what you did
2:19I gave you the best years of your life
2:24Your life of your life
2:27I gave you yea
2:29I gave you the best years of your life life
2:38Baby ain't nobody gonna love you like I did
2:44You'll never miss a good thing until it's gone forever
2:50You must be out your mind
