Lyrics
THIS ONE'S FOR YOU
Music & Lyrics by Denise Dimin / Reel2Real Songs
This one's for you. You're the one who has taken my place.
You won. Guess I should bow out with grace.
And be happy with my pride.
My hat is off to you. You did what I just never could.
Though, you know, I always thought that I would.
God knows, that I tried.
If you think, you'll make him happy,
Go on - you've got the best.
Give him good times, give him love,
And for me, there's nothing left.
I raise my glass to you. You've succeeded where I'd always failed.
Guess things are good, but, oh, what the hell.
I guess you're satisfied.
Thanks to you, I'm free. I do what I please.
Right now I'm just not sure what that means.
Sometimes it hurts so much inside.
I didn't think this could happen.
It's all a bad mistake.
You've got him now. You've got his love.
And who is to blame?
I didn't think this could happen.
It's all a bad mistake.
You've got him now. You've got his love.
And I -- I am to blame.
