V1:
Felt so right in the moment
The spell you cast was potent
Tried to put me to sleep
Visualize what we could be
But when I woke didn't see the real me
Not in the show on the marquee
Chorus:
We were good baby, but we couldn't make it last
We were cruising down the path
But then you forced it way to fast
You had your own grand design
Didn't confirm that mine aligned
Expected me to jump in line
You were busy making plans
Based on dreams I never had
V2:
You built up a fantasy
Thought you had an ace up your sleeve
Till the house came falling down
Forced to see there was no crown
No date for a long white gown
Found your feet back on firm ground
Chorus:
We were good baby, but we couldn't make it last
We were cruising down the path
But then you forced it way to fast
You had your own grand design
Didn't confirm that mine aligned
Expected me to jump in line
You were busy making plans
Based on dreams I never had
Bridge:
You were naming babies
Drawing plans for a big house
Mapping out all our vacations
Had our whole lives laid out
Was just one thing missing
Chorus:
We were good baby, but we couldn't make it last
We were cruising down the path
But then you forced it way to fast
You had your own grand design
Didn't confirm that mine aligned
Expected me to jump in line
You were busy making plans
Based on dreams I never had
