It falls into place, the time and the space
I cannot erase all it has done, but I can say
I walked away with something
That's what it's all about
That's what it comes down to
I didn't mean to doubt you
Fuck the bad intentions, you loved me with a vengeance
We get whatever's coming
We get what we deserve
For whatever it's worth, you never put me
Wait, let me back up
I couldn't love you first, I know
My ego is the worst, I know
I wasn't tryna hurt you though
I wasn't tryna
Mm
If, anything it let me know
Just what it is I'm looking for in another down the road
You showed me exactly how I should be loved (I should be loved)
Hindsight is 20/20
My mind gets to running running
Back to the things you said
White lies and red flags, red flags
I never saw it coming
You can't really dodge a bullet
If it ricochets
But I'll stay out of your way, out of your way
I couldn't love you first, I know
My ego is the worst, I know
I wasn't tryna hurt you though
Mm
If anything, it let me know
Just what it is I'm looking for in another down the road
You showed me exactly how I should be loved (I should be loved)
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la
Listen
Everything is everything
(Like a) raindrop in the ocean
(Just a) small piece of the whole thing
(Ain't no) fairplay in this love game
Cause everything is everything
(Like a) a raindrop in the ocean
(Just a) small piece of the whole thing
(Ain't no) fairplay in this love game
Cause everything is everything
(Like a) a raindrop in the ocean
(Just a) small piece of the whole thing
(Ain't no) fairplay in this love game
Cause everything is everything
(Like a) a raindrop in the ocean
(Just a) small piece of the whole thing
(Ain't no) fairplay in this
That's all that I can say
