— LYRICS —
Every time we’d wake up
I got to see you with no makeup
Yeah, you hated how it looked off
But, baby, that’s just how you grew up
There’ll be someone new for you, baby
I’m not worried ’bout you, oh
I’ll be somewhere going crazy
I’ll be stuck on you (Woo)
We had potential, makes me mental not havin’ you, oh
And it drives me crazy that my baby
Thinks we’re through so soon, yeah
We had potential, it makes me mental
We had potential, it makes me mental
We had potential, it makes me mental
We had potential and now I’m mental
It was a difficult breakup
But I wrote some songs that got me famous
Sometimes I think about what it costs
You were the last one that I could trust
There’ll be someone new for you, baby
I’m not worried ’bout you, oh
I’ll be somewhere going crazy
I’ll be stuck on you
We had potential, makes me mental not havin’ you, oh
And it drives me crazy that my baby
Thinks we’re through so soon, yeah
And when I fall, I’m blamin’ you
That doesn’t make it your fault
But it still makes it true
I play alone in this game for two
You aren’t the final boss, but you still make me lose
We had potential, makes me mental not havin’ you, oh
And it drives me crazy that my baby
Thinks we’re through so soon
We had potential (We had potential), makes me mental (It makes me mental)
Not havin’ you, oh (We had potential, it makes me mental)
And it drives me crazy that my baby
Thinks we’re through so soon
(We had potential, it makes me mental, it)
It drives me crazy that my baby
(We had potential, it makes me mental)
Drives me crazy, that, that my babe
(We had potential, it makes me mental)
We had potential, it makes me mental
We had potential, and now I’m mental
We
