[Verse 1]
When you drove me to New York from Chicago
With your big hair and your attitude
Well, I knew it then, that you could not be bothered
[Refrain]
It was always you
It was always you
[Verse 2]
When you showed up at the airport
With your new boy and his fancy black suit
I had a wife at home, she gave up on loving me
[Refrain]
It was always you
It was always you
[Verse 3]
When you resurfaced half a decade later
No rings on our hands, starting anew
Ooh, we fell deep that night, it played out like a movie
When I left you in the morning, you were sad and confused
[Bridge]
Eleven weeks of silence talking to your answеring machine
And on your birthday I ran to you
Caught you at the door as you werе leaving
See the timing's only wrong for those who lack the patience to wait
[Verse 4]
I told you I loved you
Leaned off your imperfections
Smiled and claimed you hated me, but you kissed me anyway
We got married not ten months later
[Refrain]
It was always you
It was always you
