IOU

(album: Based On A Feeling - 2022)

So, I was right
You were too good to be true
Was this love fulfilling
Or did I just fill my void like a fool? Yeah
That final night
When you said, "Damn, I'll miss you"
I believed it, didn't I?
'Cause it felt like the right thing to do, yeah

'Cause it feels like I owe you for all those years of happiness you brought me
You gave me that, so I'll give you that
Not one thing that I would take back
Feels like I owe you for all those years of happiness you brought me
You gave me that, so I'll give you that
Though you didn't love me back, you were the best I had

So, I was right
You never did see my worth
But I don't resent you
I was convinced I was getting the world
Thank you for making me think that I
Had everything I had asked God for
You made me feel so damn good, I forgot you didn't love me, oh

'Cause it feels like I owe you for all those years of happiness you brought me
You gave me that, so I'll give you that
Not one thing that I would take back
Feels like I owe you for all those years of happiness you brought me
You gave me that, so I'll give you that
Though you didn't love me back, you were the best I had
