*break*


Verse 1:

*break*

  I'm doing good, I'm on some new shit / Been saying "yes" instead of "no"
  I thought I saw you at the bus stop, I didn't though
  I hit the ground running each night / I hit the Sunday matinée
  You know the greatest films of all time were never made

Pre-Chorus:

  I guess you never know, never know
  And if you wanted me, you really should've showed
  And if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow
  And it's alright now

Chorus:

  But we were something, don't you think so? / Roaring twenties, tossing pennies in the pool
  And if my wishes came true It would've been you
  In my defense, I have none /  For never leaving well enough alone
  But it would've been fun If you would've been the one
  (Ooh)

Verse 2: (bass starts at 1:36)

  I have this dream you're doing cool shit / Having adventures on your own
  You meet some woman on the internet and take her home
  We never painted by the numbers, baby / But we were making it count
  You know the greatest loves of all time are over now

Pre-Chorus:

*break*

  I guess you never know, never know
  And it's another day waking up alone


Chorus:

  But we were something, don't you think so? / Roaring twenties, tossing pennies in the pool
  And if my wishes came true It would've been you
  In my defense, I have none / For never leaving well enough alone
  But it would've been fun If you would've been the one

Bridge:

  I, I, I persist and resist the temptation to ask you
  If one thing had been different
  Would everything be different today?

Outro:

  We were something, don't you think so? / Rosé flowing with your chosen family
  And it would've been sweet If it could've been me
  In my defense, I have none / For digging up the grave another time
  But it would've been fun If you would've been the one
  (Ooh)
