If It Wasn't For Bad
I knew from the first night I met you
Something just wasn't quite right
You looked like an innocent stranger
But something was just out of sight
How could I know that you would use me
And fill out some plan of your own?
I couldn't have known you'd abuse me
And leave me here hurt and alone
If it wasn't for you, I'd be happy
If it wasn't for lies, you'd be true
I know that you could be just like you should
If it wasn't for bad, you'd be good
I only saw what I wanted to see
You were a dream in my mind
I didn't know how you really could be
It didn't take long for me to find
I guess that it's my fault for seeing
Only what I wanted to see
I couldn't know you would be
A player just acting for me
If it wasn't for you, I'd be happy
If it wasn't for lies, you'd be true
I know you could be just like you should
If it wasn't for bad, you'd be good
I knew from the first night I met you
Something just wasn't quite right
You looked like an innocent stranger
But something was just out of sight
If it wasn't for you, I'd be happy
If it wasn't for lies, you'd be true
I know you could be just like you should
If it wasn't for bad, you'd be good
If it wasn't for bad, you'd be good
