When he was seeing her you could see he had his doubts And now he's missing her because he knows he's missing out And now its haunting him, her memory's like a ghost And he's so terrified 'cause no one else even comes close He's the guy that you should feel sorry for He had the world but he thought that he wanted more I owe it all to the mistake he made back then I owe it all to my girl's ex-boyfriend So then along comes me this undeserving mess Who would believe my life would be so blessed Two years ago when he left all that debris Who would have known he would leave everything I need He's the guy that you should feel sorry for He had the world but he thought that he wanted more I owe it all to the mistake he made back then I owe it all to my girl's ex-boyfriend If it wasn't for him I would still be searching If it wasn't for him I wouldn't know my best friend If it wasn't for him He would be able to see that If it wasn't for him he'd be as happy as me When she and I settle down you can bet That he is gonna have to settle for less He's someone I would hate to be I got the girl and he's left with just a memory He's the guy that you should feel sorry for He had the world but he thought that he wanted more I owe it all to the mistake he made back then I owe it all to my girl's ex-boyfriend If it wasn't for him I would still be searching If it wasn't for him I wouldn't know my best friend If it wasn't for him He would be able to see that If it wasn't for him he'd be as happy as me
