All the Time
Bottom Line Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why did it have to turn out this way?
Why did you go for a friend?
I've chased you for 3 long years but now I'm done.
Will you be happy in the end?

The lesson I've learned is much greater than the love you gave
I'm just no longer interested cause I know in the end
I'll be saved.

You finally got your dream girl,
The girl you've been looking to find.
I guess I'll just sit back and watch it happen,
Cause these things happen all of the time.

Now I'm not calling you a thief of my girl, I know I'm just no longer it.
But somewhere out there I know there is a girl for me.
I'll be glad I never threw this fit.

Now I know not to get caught up in that dating game.
I'll wait for that perfect girl for me who will love me
Just the same.

You finally got your dream girl,
The girl you've been longing to find.




So, I guess I'll just sit back and watch it happen,
Cause these things happen all of the time.
