if it was gonna be you (Live Acoustic) Lyrics

I can be happy with the pit in my stomach

Throw a net over the top

Do gymnastics on it like a trampoline

And hope to God that I don't drop

I can be happy with the thoughts that haunt me

I can keep them in their cage

Like a dog in the spare room at the party

Pray only I can hear the wimpering

'Cause if it was gonna be you, it would have been

If it was gonna be you, it would have been

I can be happy being less of a human

Only feeling half the time

And in the morning if a duller shade of yellow

Wants to wake me up

I'll open the blinds

'Cause if it was gonna be you, it would have been

If it was gonna be you, it would have been

And I can hold it just an inch on the surface

When I don't feel it in my bones

And even if I'm held up years being unhappy

It doesn't mean I was wrong

'Cause if it was gonna be you, it would have been

It would have been, it would have been

If it was gonna be you, it would have been

If it was gonna be you, it would have been
