Before you came I jumped the gun
I'd get so far ahead that I couldn't stop
Too many times I should have run
I'd tell myself it's real, but it never was

All of those mistakes I made
Over and over
They were meant to guide my way
Closer, yeah

I think I finally got it right with you
It took a minute but I always knew
If I never got it wrong, I never would have seen the truth
I think I finally got it right with you

I searched the world, so high and low
But never really knew what I'm looking for
I'd see a light and chase the glow
But everything that shines isn't always gold

All of those mistakes I made
Over and over
They were meant to guide my way
Closer, yeah

I think I finally got it right with you
It took a minute but I always knew
If I never got it wrong, I never would have seen the truth
I think I finally got it right with you

I'd given up, given up
Given up on finding love
But it was you, it was you
That I kept on dreaming of
And once I knew that feeling
I couldn't go wrong

I think I finally got it right with you
I think I finally got it right with you

I think I finally got it right with you
It took a minute but I always knew
If I never got it wrong, I never would have seen the truth
I think I finally got it right with you

Hey, I finally got it right with you
I think I finally got it right with you
If I never got it wrong (never got it wrong)
I never would have known the truth
I think I finally got it right with you
