IF IT WASN'T FOR BAD

I knew from the first night I met you 
Something just wasn't quite right 
Loving like an innocent stranger 
But something was just out of sight 

How could I know that you had used me 
Fill out some plan of your own 
I could have known you'd abused me 
Leave me here hurt and alone 

If it wasn't for you I'd be happy 
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true 
I know that you could be just like you should 
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good 

I only sung what I wanted to sing 
You were a dream in my mind 
I never know how you never could be 
It didn't take long for me to find 

I guess that it's mine for foresee 
Only what I wanted to see 
I couldn't know you would be 
A player just acting for me 

If it wasn't for you I'd be happy 
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true 
I know you could be just like you should 
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good 

I knew from the first night I met you 
Something just wasn't quite right 
Loving like an innocent stranger 
But something was just out of sight 

If it wasn't for you I'd be happy 
If it wasn't for lies you'd be true 
I know you could be just like it should 
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
 
If it wasn't for bad you'd be good
