Ain't The One

Girl, we keep breakin' up and makin' up and breakin' up again

How did we go from picture-perfect to the shape that we're in?

Was it that Gibson in a case, packin' up that Pontiac

Drivin' what felt like a whole world away

To be so damn close but so far to go

They say you always know when you know, well, I know

Someone's gonna build their dream-come-true

Hometown house with a Westport view

Someone's gonna hit their knee and plant those roots

Sweep you off your feet and fill your daddy's boots

Steal your heart, line your stars, hang your moon, light your sun

It's killin' me, baby, knowin' I ain't the one

Knowin' I ain't

The one that's gonna see you all dressed up in white

Waitin' in that car while you wait for two pink lines

Gettin' all the good out of our goodbye

And I get to be the one to watch someone else live my life

Someone's gonna build their dream-come-true

Hometown house with a Westport view

Someone's gonna hit their knee and plant those roots

Sweep you off your feet and fill your daddy's boots

Steal your heart, line your stars, hang your moon, light your sun

It's killin' me, baby, knowin' I ain't the one

Yeah, knowin' I ain't the one

To be so damn close but so far to go

They say you always know when you know, well, I know

Someone's gonna build their dream-come-true

Hometown house with a Westport view

Someone's gonna hit their knee and plant those roots

Sweep you off your feet and fill your daddy's boots

Steal your heart, line your stars, hang your moon, light your sun

It's killin' me, baby, knowin' I ain't the one

(Line your stars, hang your moon, light your sun)

(It's killin' me, baby) Yeah, knowin' I ain't the one
