[Intro]
(I blame guitars, your hometown bars)
(Why didn't my heart?)
[Verse 1]
He bought me a drink that night in 2022
But we didn't hit it off 'cause I was stuck looking at you
He asked me questions and then cared 'bout what I'd tell him
But you were funny, charming, a little crass, and overwhelming
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't help but wonder
What woulda happened if I gave him my number
Instead of saying goodbye?
Can't help but wonder
Why'd I pick the wrong guy, pick the wrong guy?
[Chorus]
If I just went for Lucas, I wouldn't have gone through this
He woulda been real nice, and my life wouldn't have been ruined
It coulda ended there
But I just had to move my chair
And end up next to you, you, you
If I just went for Lucas I wouldn't feel so stupid
I thought that I knew wrong from right, but you made it confusing
I'd get back to my hotel wouldn't have to go through hell
All this time with you, you, you
If I just went for Lucas
[Post-Chorus]
(You've called me three thousand times)
(You've called me three thousand times just to remind me you don't want me)
[Verse 2]
Maybe we'd be dating, maybe even last forever
He'd meet my family, do perfect under pressure (Oh, he would)
They'd say he's sweet, so handsome, caring, or whatever (Caring or whatever)
Instead, I'm stuck with you
Can't even say that we're together
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't help but wonder (Oh)
What would have happened if I gave him my number (Oh)
Instead of looking in your eyes?
Can't help but wonder (Mm)
Why'd I pick the wrong guy, pick the wrong guy? (Why'd I pick the wrong guy?)
[Chorus]
If I just went for Lucas, I wouldn't have gone through this (Oh)
He woulda been real nice and my life wouldn't have been ruined (It wouldn't have been ruined)
It coulda ended there, but I just had to move my chair
And end up next to you, you, you
If I just went for Lucas, I wouldn't feel so stupid (Wouldn't feel stupid)
I thought that I knew wrong from right, but you made it confusing
I'd get back to my hotel, wouldn't have to go through hell (Have to go through hell)
All this time with you, you, you (You)
If I just went for Lucas
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, oh-woah)
(Oh-woah)
(If I just went for Lucas)
[Bridge]
You've called me three thousand times just to remind me you don't want me (Oh)
I replay that fateful night, it's in my mind, and it's still haunts me (It still haunts me)
I know where it all went wrong, you came on strong, strung me along
You know, I blame guitars, your hometown bars
[Outro]
Why didn't my heart go for Lucas? I wouldn't have gone through this
He woulda been real nice (Woulda been real nice)
And my life wouldn't have been ruined (And my life wouldn't have been ruined)
It coulda ended there (Ooh), but I just had to move my chair (Had to move my chair)
And end up next to you, you, you (End up next to you)
If I just went for Lucas
