THE 1


I'm doing good, I'm on some new shit 
been saying "yes" instead of "no" 
I thought I saw you at the bus stop, I didn't though 
I hit the ground running each night 
I hit the Sunday matinée 
you know the greatest films of all time were never made 

I guess you never know, never know 
and if you wanted me, you really should've showed 
and if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow 
and it's alright now

but we were something, don't you think so? 
roaring twenties, tossing pennies in the pool 
and if my wishes came true 
it would've been you 
in my defense, I have none 
for never leaving well enough alone 
but it would've been fun 
if you would've been the one 

I had this dream you're doing cool shit
having adventures on your own 
you meet some woman on the internet and take her home 
we never painted by the numbers, baby 
but we were making it count 
you know the greatest loves of all time are over now 

I guess you never know, never know 
and it's another day waking up alone 

but we were something, don't you think so? 
roaring twenties, tossing pennies in the pool 
and if my wishes came true 
it would've been you 
in my defense, I have none 
for never leaving well enough alone 
but it would've been fun 
if you would've been the one 

I, I, I persist and resist the temptation to ask you 
if one thing had been different 
would everything be different today? 

we were something, don't you think so? 
rosé flowing with your chosen family 
and it would've been sweet 
if it could've been me 
in my defense, I have none 
for digging up the grave another time 
but it would've been fun 
if you would've been the one

I gotta give a shoutout to Taylor Swift for dropping a surprise eighth album, the first song of which I really like. Thanks for giving 2020 something worth remembering for. It sounds majorly different from all of her previous music. It's way more chill. The name of the album is folklore and it really describes the music.
