​it could’ve been u Lyrics

[Intro]
(I used to feel bad, now I don't)

[Verse 1]
I bet you're sorry, don't say you're not
Yeah, you're so used to getting everything you want
But I still know you, guess you forgot
You're only at this party

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I took you to places you'd never go
Introduce you to people you'd never know
And now you're here, but you're all alone
I used to feel bad, now I don't

[Chorus]
'Cause every time we break up, I break down
Now I don't wanna make up, I'll make out
With somebody new, it could've been you
'Cause every time we'd fuck up, I'd freak out
You're out of second chances, now I'm out
With somebody new, it could've been you
It could have been, it could have been you
(You, you, you)


[Verse 2]
Your eyes are on me, just like his hands
He's doing things to me you'd never understand
He calls me baby, I call him “mine"
And everything's so different
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause he'll take me to places I wanna go
Introduce me to people I wanna know
And you might be there, but I wouldn't know
I used to miss you, now I don't

[Chorus]
'Cause every time we break up, I break down
Now I don't wanna make up, I'll make out
With somebody new, it could've been you
'Cause every time we'd fuck up, I'd freak out
You're out of second chances, now I'm out
With somebody new, it could've been you
It could've been, it could've been you
(You, you, you)

[Outro]
It could've been, it could've been you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
