Lyrics

The One (Acoustic)

[Verse 1]

I should have known right from the start

Can't love somebody with a broken heart

You kissed away all of my scars

I watched you fall when I should have cut it off

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I could go back, tell you to run

Wish I could go there and make you move on

I always knew I could hurt someone

But I hate that you had to be the one

[Chorus]

The one, the one, the one, the one

I hate that you had to be the one

The one, the one, the one, the one

I hatе that you had to be

[Verse 2]

Your hands on me felt likе relief

You held me close like I was yours to keep, yeah

So now I know, yeah, if you love 'em let them go

'Cause hurt people will hurt people

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I could go back, tell you to run

Wish I could go there and make you move on

I always knew I could hurt someone

But I hate that you had to be the one

[Chorus]

The one, the one, the one, the one

I hate that you had to be the one

The one, the one, the one, the one

I hate that you had to be the one

[Bridge]

Wanted your, wanted your touch to save me

Wanted it too, but it didn't change me

Sorry, you're sorry you even met me at all

Wanted your, wanted your touch to save me

Wanted it too, but it didn't change me

Sorry, you're sorry you even met me at all

[Pre-Chorus]

I wish I could go back, tell you to run

Wish I could go there and make you move on

I always knew I could hurt someone

But I hate that you had to be the one

[Chorus]

The one, the one, the one, the one

I hate that you had to be the one

The one, the one, the one, the one

I hate that you had to be the one
