be the one Lyrics

I have this ex from my junior year

He was everything to me

He was damn near perfect

Took him a year to find someone else

And i had moved on,

It hurt but it felt worth it

And just a week ago

He told me everything

Probably shouldn't know

His secrets come with strings

Summer's moving slow

It's a boundaries thing

Used to be impressed with the kinda man you were

But now your reputation's buried six feet in the dirt

You asked my boy to keep his distance 'fore you got with her

'Fore I caught you in my driveway, your hands up in her shirt

You think that it'd be easier to run out and be done

Someone's gotta knock you down a peg, I wanna be the one

Be the one

Be the one

You drew a line so deep in the sand

It felt permanent, I wanna demand

Explaining

You asked me to keep my hands off my man

I said, "do the same"

What happened to that plan?

I really wanna know

What made you act like that

Have some self control

You were always good at that

How'd I love you so, love you so damn bad?

Bad?

Used to be impressed with the kinda man you were

But now your reputation's buried six feet in the dirt

You asked my boy to keep his distance 'fore you got with her

'Fore I caught you in my driveway, your hands up in her shirt

You think that it'd be easier to run out and be done

Someone's gotta knock you down a peg, I wanna be the one

Be the one

Be the one

Be the one

Be the one

Be the one

I really wanna know

What made you act like that

Have some self control

You were always good at that

How'd I love you so, love you so damn bad?

Bad?

Used to be impressed with the kinda man you were

(Kinda man you were)

But now your reputation's buried six feet in the dirt

(Six feet in the dirt)

You asked my boy to keep his distance 'fore you got with her

('Fore you got with her)

'Fore I caught you in my driveway, your hands up in her shirt

(Hands up in her shirt)

You think that it'd be easier to run out and be done

Someone's gotta knock you down a peg, I wanna be the one

Be the one

Be the one
