The One Where It Didn’t Work Out Lyrics by Mark Rose

The Wild Type

2015

[Verse 1]
Some things happen and I don't know why
Like how people in the movies
Never have the time to say goodbye
When the worst things always happen to the very best guys
When the truth is that it's just a little bit easier to lie
When you throw it and it doesn't come back to you
[Verse 2]
The one where it just didn't work out
You don't believe the things you said
Or how you went up and let yourself down
The one where you didn't call and stayed out all night
You didn't come home at all
You said you don't want this fight
You throw it and it doesn't come back
[Chorus]
The one where you took the wrong route
Where you locked yourself out
Where you finally found what hurt was all about
The one where you lost your will
Where your life stood still
Got to remind yourself the best won't come until
The best won't come until
The best won't come until
Until you open up your heart and let it win
[Bridge]
If you fear the sound of thunder
If you feel you're going under
Hold tight a little longer
Don't leave it up to wonder
If you fight a little stronger
For the dreams you're hiding under
Hold tight a little longer
Don't leave it up to wonder
But if you wonder where you're going
And if you wonder where you are
Just know you've got forever
This is only what you've done so far
[Chorus]
The one where you took the wrong route
Where you locked yourself out
Where you finally found what hurt was all about
The one where you lost your will
Where your life stood still
Got to remind yourself the best won't come until
The one where you took the wrong route
Where you locked yourself out
Where you finally found what hurt was all about
The one where you lost your will
Where your life stood still
Got to remind yourself the best won't come until
The best won't come until
The best won't come until
The best won't come until
The best won't come until
The best won't come until
The best won't come until
Until you open up your heart and let it win
