Wanted It To Be You

(album: The Hype - 2023)

You can't push water up a hill
Can't part a woman and her will
You're mad that I hurt you
Guess no one's ever broken your heart in two
Perfect on paper, big league major
Tall as a skyscraper, and I loved you like

I thought you would be my endgame
I wrote your name on my last page
Ooh, I
Wanted it to be
Wanted it to be you
Call me out like it's a mistake
Don't worry, baby, I'll find real love one day
Ooh, I
Wanted it to be
Wanted it to be you

I put you on a pedestal
My family loved you like their own
But I wasn't ready
My ego is too heavy to love right now
At least you can say you're the one who got away
Like a ship in the night, passing me by that's you and I

I thought you would be my endgame
I wrote your name on my last page
Ooh, I
Wanted it to be
Wanted it to be you
Call me out like it's a mistake
Don't worry, baby, I'll find real love one day
Ooh, I
Wanted it to be
Wanted it to be

Maybe we will
Maybe we won't
Maybe we will
Maybe we won't
Maybe it's me
Never enough

I thought you would be my endgame
I wrote your name on my last page
Ooh, I
Wanted it to be
Wanted it to be you
Call me out like it's a mistake
Don't worry, baby, I'll find real love one day
Ooh, I
Wanted it to be
Wanted it to be you
