Why Haven't I Met You
Cameron Dallas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I gotta be honest, I gotta be honest
Hearts been walked on, so I'm cautious
I gotta stay cautious
When I start falling, I just stop it
Baby, I stop it
'Cause I know it's not you
And I've waited for you
But then my bed grows colder like my empty shoulder
What can I do?
'Cause it's too hard to face all alone on this pillow
Waiting for your love wishing it was that simple
Knowing that you're out there looking for me
Why haven't I met you?

If only I met you you you you
If only I met you you you you
Why haven't I met you you you you
If only I met you
Why haven't I met you?

I gotta be honest, just let me be honest
Got trust issues, I'm not flawless
No, I'm not flawless
Never second guess me girl, I promise
Baby I promise
'Cause I know that's not you
And I've waited for you

But now my bed grows colder like my empty shoulder
What can I do?
'Cause it's too hard to face all alone on this pillow
Waiting for your love wishing it was that simple
Knowing that you're out there looking for me
Why haven't I met you?

If only I met you you you you
If only I met you you you you
Why haven't I met you you you you
If only I met you
Why haven't I met you?

Girl, I know you're out there now
And I know you're holding out
Need me to come around
Know that I won't let you down, no

'Cause it's too hard to face all alone on this pillow
Waiting for your love wishing it was that simple
Knowing that you're out there looking for me
Why haven't I met you?





If only I met you
