You Were the One Lyrics by Jay-T (USA)

2020

[Chorus]
You were the one
The one that let me know
When I was too much
But now you went and let me go
So now I'm sittin’
Sittin' alone
Now I'm doin everything I can to get you home
(To get you home)

To get you home
(To get you home)
I was actin’ up so it made ya change your tone

[Verse 1: Jay-T]
I remember when we first started out
Back when we could just chill and watch Netflix on the couch
And you were the one for me and I knew that
But I'll move the world for you and I'll prove that

You were there when the sky took out the light
(Took out the light)
But you were the only one
The only one to tell me that it's alright

[Verse 2: Jay-T]
I know they say sometimes life ain't fair
(Life ain't fair)
We all have fights
We all get a little scared
I tried to put my focus on some things that didn't shine
Now I'm feelin’ different like I stepped out of line

Sometimes I get crazy a bit
You finally showed me what my life really is

[Chorus]
You were the one
The one that let me know
When I was too much
But now you went and let me go
So now I’m sittin'
Sittin’ alone
Now I'm doin everything I can to get you home

[Outro: Jay-T]
To get you home
Ima do everything I can to get you home
