Never Meant To Be

Story Behind The Song

Lyrics

I promised the world, the stars, and more
But all that happened was we tore
The wars, the fights, they never stopped
I tore your heart to pieces
And I never got what I deserved

You were the best for me
But I just acted like
We were never meant to be
I said, give me one chance
And I swear I'll never leave you
But I'll mess up
'Cause you weren't the one for me

I'm sorry for the things I've done
I never meant to hurt you
It's times like these, nights like these
That I wish I never left you
And I never got what I deserved

You were the best for me
But I just acted like
We were never meant to be
I said, give me one chance
And I swear I'll never leave you
But I'll mess up
'Cause you weren't the one for me

Is this the end, is it over
Or is this just goodbye x2

You were the best for me
But I just acted like
We were never meant to be
I said, give me one chance
And I swear I'll never leave you
But I'll mess up
'Cause you weren't the one for me x2
