You Were Always the One

I've been stuck in my ways
I've been rollin through days
Always afraid that things might get better
I've been traveling down this road liven free I suppose
All the while feelin tired and tethered

And I don't understand while I play these games and I trade the truth for lies
Cuz you're always the one I was looking for babe, it just took time to realize

I've squandered away all the brightest of days
Always had trouble keeping on the level
And I made a big show of letting ya go
God knows I was some kind of devil

And I don't understand while I play these games and I trade the truth for lies
Cuz you're always the one I was looking for babe, it just took time to realize

It's the hardest thing by far, to see who we are
And then let the whole thing go

And float like the leaves and hang on the wind
Whichever way it blows

Now mistakes it's true I've made more than a few
and I'm goin to make many others
And it's hard to see why we go through this sometimes
All the things that we do to each other

And I don't understand while I play these games and I trade the truth for lies
Cuz you're always the one I was looking for babe, it just took time to realize
