[Chorus:]
Thought I was ready, ready for someone else
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of myself
Thought I was rock steady, that I didn't need no help
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of myself
[Verse 1:]
Guess I went ahead and jumped the gun again
Some shitty situation that I put you in
And I know we poured champagne
Maybe we was just too quick to celebrate
[Chorus:]
Thought I was ready, ready for someone else
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of myself
Thought I was rock steady, that I didn't need no help
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of my
[Post-Chorus:]
I get ahead of myself, yeah babe [2x]
[Verse 2:]
Know that I was first to say, «I love you, babe»
Moved my things to your apartment down on 2nd Street
I thought I'd cleaned the slate
But I guess I didn't clean it all away
[Chorus:]
Thought I was ready, ready for someone else
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of myself
Thought I was rock steady, that I didn't need no help
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of my
[Post-Chorus:]
I get ahead of myself, yeah babe [3x]
I get ahead of myself, yeah babe, yeah babe
I get ahead of myself [2x]
[Chorus:]
Thought I was ready, ready for someone else
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of myself
Thought I was rock steady, that I didn't need no help
But every time I get ahead of myself, every time I get ahead of my
[Post-Chorus:]
I get ahead of myself, yeah babe [3x]
I get ahead of myself, yeah babe, yeah babe
I get ahead of myself [2x]
