[Verse 1]
Didn't they say that I would make a mistake?
Didn't they say you were gonna be trouble?
People told me you were too much to take
I couldn't see it, I didn't wanna know

[Verse 2]
I let you in, and then you let me down
You messed me up and you turned my life around
Left me feeling I had nowhere to go
I was alone, how was I to know that

[Pre-Chorus]
You would be there when I needed somebody
You would be there the only one could help me

[Chorus]
I had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
The friend that was there all along

[Verse 3]
Who'd believe that after all we've been through
I'd be able to put my trust in you
Goes to show you can forgive and forget
Looking back I have no regrets 'cause
[Pre-Chorus]
You would be there when I needed somebody
You would be there the only one could help me

[Chorus]
I had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
The friend that was there all along

[Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus]
You would be there when I needed somebody
You would be there the only one could help me

[Chorus]
I had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
The friend that was there all along

Had a picture of you in my mind
Never knew it could be so wrong
Why'd it take me so long just to find
The friend that was there all along
Had a picture of you in my mind (All along)
Never knew it could be so wrong (All along)
Why'd it take me so long just to find
