One Percent Lyrics by Canaan Cox

Canaan Cox

2021

[Verse 1]
Mama says you were never good enough for me
But even she knows that's a lie
And daddy says, just to put you into a melody
Use it in the next song I write
My best friend tries to make me laugh
It works for a second but that smile never lasts
[Chorus]
So tell me how someone's supposed to forget
Something that was 99 percent perfect
Looking at those odds you'd think we could make it work
But somehow all we saw was hurt
For the love of God stop tеlling me I should move on
We wеre made to be, just the timing was wrong
I'll wait forever if that's what it takes
Not doing anyone a favor by trying to fake
What I know we have, and what we should
Trust me if I could I would
[Verse 2]
If I could
I'd have moved on but now
They all say I haven't tried
But it's not that easy
'Cause we've gone round and round and round
But we end up here every time
[Chorus]
So tell me how someone's supposed to forget
Something that was 99 percent perfect
Looking at those odds you'd think we could make it work
But somehow all we saw was hurt
For the love of God stop telling me I should move on
We were made to be, just the timing was wrong
I'll wait forever if that's what it takes
Not doing anyone a favor by trying to fake
What I know we have, and what we should
Trust me if I could I would
[Bridge]
I'd do anything to make 'em see
That you're the one percent I need
[Chorus]
So tell me how someone's supposed to forget
Something that was 99 percent perfect
Looking at those odds you'd think we could make it work
But somehow all we saw was hurt
For the love of God stop telling me I should move on
We were made to be, just the timing was wrong
I'll wait forever if that's what it takes
Not doing anyone a favor by trying to fake
What I know we have, and what we should
Trust me if I could I would
