The song lyrics are below: [Verse 1] I had to leave because I had to say no and stop More than once Way too many times And you just kept trying to change my mind [Verse 2] So I left, it was 3am And I slept in the middle of my bed With the comfort of my own choices Yeah I bet you didn't even think about what you did [Chorus] Could it be true? You don't seem like that kind of guy Not you, you've got that one song that I like They said he's got one song that I like [Verse 3] Now I don't even know why I went Every light on the way was screaming at me 'red' Now you've got me questioning everything I did Or what would've happened if I'd done one thing different
