Potential
You would fight for all the things that make you happy
Open up to me without me even asking
You would never shut me out or ever be the reason
I'd start to cry
You would let me show you all of my compassion
You would see us getting close and let it happen
Always pictured every broken part of you so perfect
Now, didn't I? (Now didn't I?)
'Cause I made up so much of you
Wishing one day it'd be true
And hoping that you'd turn into
Someone enough for me
I thought I loved you for who you really were
I thought I loved you for better or for worse
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for all of your mistakes
That all you needed was me for you to change
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
I'm the queen of always making up excuses
Over justified your flaws and we both knew it
I was blind to all your sides and I always refused to
Accept the truth
'Cause I made up so much of you
Wishing one day it'd be true
And hoping that you'd turn into
Someone enough for me
I thought I loved you for who you really were
I thought I loved you for better or for worse
When I fell, I thought you were special (though you were special)
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for all of your mistakes
That all you needed was me for you to change
When I fell, I thought you were special (thought you were special)
But I fell for your potential
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be special
But I just fell for your potential
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be special
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for who you really were
I thought I loved you for better or for worse
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for all of your mistakes
That all you needed was me for you to change
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
Open up to me without me even asking
You would never shut me out or ever be the reason
I'd start to cry
You would let me show you all of my compassion
You would see us getting close and let it happen
Always pictured every broken part of you so perfect
Now, didn't I? (Now didn't I?)
'Cause I made up so much of you
Wishing one day it'd be true
And hoping that you'd turn into
Someone enough for me
I thought I loved you for who you really were
I thought I loved you for better or for worse
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for all of your mistakes
That all you needed was me for you to change
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
I'm the queen of always making up excuses
Over justified your flaws and we both knew it
I was blind to all your sides and I always refused to
Accept the truth
'Cause I made up so much of you
Wishing one day it'd be true
And hoping that you'd turn into
Someone enough for me
I thought I loved you for who you really were
I thought I loved you for better or for worse
When I fell, I thought you were special (though you were special)
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for all of your mistakes
That all you needed was me for you to change
When I fell, I thought you were special (thought you were special)
But I fell for your potential
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be special
But I just fell for your potential
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be
Special, special
I just wanted you to be special
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for who you really were
I thought I loved you for better or for worse
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
I thought I loved you for all of your mistakes
That all you needed was me for you to change
When I fell, I thought you were special
But I fell for your potential
