I wrote this just to tell you 'Cause I finally had the chance to realize That what you put me through was everything I needed Didn't know it in the moment That I wanted something different But I only saw the broken And now I see the reason Why I spent all those nights crying Nearly getting suicidal Guess I'm glad that all the bad turned into good Oh, I'm thankful that I lost you 'Cause I found every part of me Oh the healing, it was painful But the scars didn't cut too deep 'Cause I finally found somebody else And he loves the things about myself That you never loved I wish I coulda' seen how this would end 'Cause now I know how it all ends And I'd do it all again I know I put the blame on you I hope you see that's half the truth. I thought you meant to hurt me Now I know you didn't mean it So if I ever think of us I think of when the good part was 'Cause if you never gave me up I wouldn't have the one I love But I spent all those nights crying Nearly getting suicidal Guess I'm glad that all the bad turned into good Oh, I'm thankful that I lost you 'Cause I found every part of me Oh the healing, it was painful But the scars didn't cut too deep 'Cause I finally found somebody else And he loves the things about myself That you never loved I wish I coulda' seen how this would end 'Cause now I know how it all ends And I'd do it all again It might've taken therapy But I bought my mom a house From the heartbreak royalties And I don't need your sympathy 'Cause I turned the tears to somethin' That means more to me So all I have to say is That I'm thankful 'cause I lost you And I found every part of me Oh the healing, it was painful But the scars didn't cut too deep 'Cause I finally found somebody else And he loves the things about myself That you never loved I wish I coulda' seen how this would end 'Cause now I know how it all ends And I'd do it all again I could say I'm sorry but I'm not I got exactly what I want And I'm so thankful You had your fingers crossed
