When he was seeing her
You could see he had his doubts
And now he’s missing her
Because he knows he missing out
And now it’s haunting him
Her memory’s like a ghost
And he’s so terrified
He’s the guy that you should feel sorry for
He had the world, but he thought that he wanted more
I owe it all to the mistake he made back then
I owe it all to my girl’s ex-boyfriend
This undeserving mess
Who would believe
My life would be so blessed
Two years ago
When he left all that debris
Who would have known
He would leave everything I need
He’s the guy that you should feel sorry for
He had the world, but he thought that he wanted more
I owe it all to the mistake he made back then
I owe it all to my girl’s ex-boyfriend
If it wasn't for him, I would still be searching
If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't know my best friend
If it wasn't for him, he would be able to see
That if it wasn't for him, he'd be as happy as me
When she and I settle down you can bet
That he is going to have to settle for less
He's someone I would hate to be
I got the girl, and he’s left with just the memory
He’s the guy that you should feel sorry for
He had the world, but he thought that he wanted more
I owe it all to the mistake he made back then
I owe it all to my girl’s ex-boyfriend
If it wasn't for him, I would still be searching
If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't know my best friend
If it wasn't for him, he would be able to see
That if it wasn't for him, he'd be as happy as me
