Lyrics
I hear Levi is getting a divorce
Oh, he can sure look a gift horse, well you know
Not you, you're gonna stay with her all of your years
At least Levi can face, his darkest fears
As far as friends go, baby I was the tops
You wanted all of me and all is what you got
I gave you my heart in the palm of my scholarly hand
You took it and walked away, no you ran
Most people think I'm going crazy
Most people don't know a damn thing about me
I'm your one and only
But, you just don't see me the way you should
I'm your one and only
But, you just don’t know me the way you could
So, this is goodbye for good
I wish I could say you wasted the best years of my life
You never gave me the chance so I'll leave those words to your wife
Everybody knows you're a scared child
You let your art suffer, so meek and mild
Most people think I should be angry
Most people don't know a page from our story, let me tell ya
I'm your one and only
But, you just don't see me the way you should
I'm your one and only
But, you just don’t know me the way you could
So, this is goodbye for good
When you lie awake at night
Thumbing through your phone
Thinking about the conversations we've had
Know, I would rather be alone
Than with any other man
Nobody moves me the way you can
Don’t matter where you run
This is me and I’m done
I'm your one and only
But, you just don't see me the way you should
I'm your one and only
But, you just don’t know me the way you could
So, this is goodbye for good
When you see Levi
You tell him I think he's out of his mind
Good love is hard to find
Or maybe I'm just not the loving kind
