Lyrics

I've lost my share before
This cost me so much more
She's not just anyone
He's got my sweet sweet number one

There's only so much you can be
But it's not enough to see
How you fall short of the mark
My big mistake was that I thought
I could be someone I'm not
I could be her love through day and dark

No one cares if you're right
When you're too weak to fight
This time it struck me numb
Goodbye my sweet sweet number one

Now there's so little you can do
When your choices are so few
You don't feel you're in control
When I made one last grand attack
She said I can't have her back
She'll give me one part but not the whole
Not her soul

Girl, though we fell more than we had to fall
Who knows if there was a smooth way at all
And though we fell, I wish you well
Girl, I am willing to let you move on
But there's no way I'll forget that you're gone
I lie awake
'Cause I can't take your face away
Or make your voice have less to tell

I've lost my share before
This cost me so much more
Don't say I'll love again
Don't say I'll live till then
Curse him for what he's done
She's not just anyone
He's got my sweet sweet number one
Number one
Number one
