Catherine McGrath - Thought It Was Gonna Be Me lyrics

[Verse 1] Put my hair up, did my make up Fifteen minutes in the mirror ’cause you said That tonight was the night you were gonna be back in town Little nervous, it’s been a while since The day you left and we didn’t but we almost did And it’s all that I can think about [Pre-Chorus] You said the band goes on tonight You had me high on bu*terflies Then I saw the girl standing by your side Had to smile so I wouldn’t cry [Chorus] And I don’t know what hurts the worst Me alone or you with her Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were Or the way her hand was in your hand Like I wanted mine to be Or standing in the brand new dress I bought ‘Cause I thought it was gonna be me [Verse 2] I try to sneak out, felt like such a fool You came running, said “it’s so good to see you Meet my girl, yeah I think you’re gonna get along” I had to sit there and be polite Wanted to hate her but she’s so damn nice She made you happy, I could see in your eyes Had to smile, so I wouldn’t cry [Chorus] And I don’t know what hurts the worst Me alone or you with her Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were Or the way her hand was in your hand Like I wanted mine to be Or standing in the brand new dress I bought ‘Cause I thought it was gonna be me [Bridge] Shoulda told you, shoulda told you Only got myself to blame Shoulda kissed you, shoulda kissed you Now it’s too late Guess it’s too late I really thought it was gonna be me, yeah [Chorus] And I don’t know what hurts the worst Me alone or you with her Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were Or the way her hand was in your hand Like I wanted mine to be Or standing in the brand new dress I bought ‘Cause I thought it was gonna be me [Outro] I really thought it was gonna be me I really thought it was gonna be me I really thought it was gonna be me I really thought it was gonna be me[Verse 1] Put my hair up, did my make up Fifteen minutes in the mirror ’cause you said That tonight was the night you were gonna be back in town Little nervous, it’s been a while since The day you left and we didn’t but we almost did And it’s all that I can think about [Pre-Chorus] You said the band goes on tonight You had me high on bu*terflies Then I saw the girl standing by your side Had to smile so I wouldn’t cry [Chorus] And I don’t know what hurts the worst Me alone or you with her Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were Or the way her hand was in your hand Like I wanted mine to be Or standing in the brand new dress I bought ‘Cause I thought it was gonna be me [Verse 2] I try to sneak out, felt like such a fool You came running, said “it’s so good to see you Meet my girl, yeah I think you’re gonna get along” I had to sit there and be polite Wanted to hate her but she’s so damn nice She made you happy, I could see in your eyes Had to smile, so I wouldn’t cry [Chorus] And I don’t know what hurts the worst Me alone or you with her Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were Or the way her hand was in your hand Like I wanted mine to be Or standing in the brand new dress I bought ‘Cause I thought it was gonna be me [Bridge] Shoulda told you, shoulda told you Only got myself to blame Shoulda kissed you, shoulda kissed you Now it’s too late Guess it’s too late I really thought it was gonna be me, yeah [Chorus] And I don’t know what hurts the worst Me alone or you with her Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were Or the way her hand was in your hand Like I wanted mine to be Or standing in the brand new dress I bought ‘Cause I thought it was gonna be me [Outro] I really thought it was gonna be me I really thought it was gonna be me I really thought it was gonna be me I really thought it was gonna be me
