Five Years Lyrics – Jaime Paxton

Five Years Text

---

You were the best thing and the worst thing to ever happen to me,
All rolled up into one. And it's taken me this long to write a song about you.

Should've listened to myself when you walked back into my life - for the third time.

Guess I should've closed my legs and my door to you.

But I can trust about as far as you can throw me.
And I could stand you just as long as you afforded me...
and it's taken me this long to write a song about you.

You were the best thing and the worst thing to ever happen to me,
All rolled up into one. And it's taken me this long to write a song about you.

I hope I never see you again but I'll promise you one thing.
I may never see your face, but I know you'll see me.
Yeah, I know you'll see me. You should probably watch out for me.

You were the best thing and the worst thing to ever happen to me,
All rolled up into one. And it's taken me this long to write a song about you.

And I'm sorry if this doesn't do it for you. I'm sorry that you didn't measure up.
I'm sorry if I left you feeling empty. I'm sorry you let your life screw you up.
I'm sorry that I didn't love you more, but I feel sorry for that whore you left me for.
I'm sorry I gave you five years but most of all I'm sorry it took me this long...
I'm sorry it took me this long. I'm sorry it took me this long... to write a song about you.
