Because I Had You - Shawn Mendes

I think it’s time that I be honest

Should’ve told you not to go

Thought I knew just what I wanted

I didn’t know myself at all

You’re with somebody I can’t be, yeah

But I can tell that you’re happy

It’s time for me to finally meet somebody new

Take her to all the places that I took us to

And she might help me forget

But loving her is something I could never do

Because I had, because I had you

Hey, remember when I told you

That you and I, we’d go down in history together, yeah

And does your sister ask about me?

You and I, what we had, is it gone forever?

You’re with somebody I can’t be

But I can tell that you’re happy

It’s time for me to finally meet somebody new

Take her to all the places that I took us to

And she might help me forget but loving her is something I could never do

Because I had, because I had you

There’s nothin', oh

There’s nothin' left to lose (ooh)

Because I had you, babe

There’s nothin'

Nothin' that I could do (ooh)

I wish I had you

But I think it’s time I finally found somebody new

And tell myself that she’s the one to get me through

And she might help me forget but loving her is something I just couldn’t do

Because I had you
