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 upRight as you called
Right as you called, I had to get my stuff
Don't defend the decision
Or pretend it didn't happen to usJust before I could go
She would run, run, run, run, run, run, runShe 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 begunAnd 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 and moreBut forgiving is fun
On the nights when I knew that she was the one
I kept my date book open
Just to angle for a coffee with someoneBut she'll never fall
She'll never fall in love with one of us
She's the type to keep us thinking
All along that we've got things worked upJust before all I saw
I could run, run, run, run, run, run, runShe 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 begunAnd 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 and moreYou 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 wrongShe 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 begunAnd 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 and moreI think that she was the one
I think that she was the one
