McGrath, Catherine - Thought It Was Gonna Be Me Lyrics
Put my hair up, did my make up
Fifteen minutes in the mirror 'cause you said
That tonight was the night you were gonna be back in town
Little nervous, it's been a while since
The day you left and we didn't but we almost did
You said the band goes on tonight
You had me high on butterflies
Then I saw the girl standing by your side
Had to smile so I wouldn't cry
And I don't know what hurts the worst
Me alone or you with her
Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were
Or the way her hand was in your hand
Or standing in the brand new dress I bought
'Cause I thought it was gonna be me
I try to sneak out, felt like such a fool
You came running, said "it's so good to see you
Meet my girl, yeah I think you're gonna get along"
I had to sit there and be polite
Wanted to hate her but she's so damn nice
She made you happy, I could see in your eyes
Had to smile, so I wouldn't cry
And I don't know what hurts the worst
Me alone or you with her
Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were
Or the way her hand was in your hand
Like I wanted mine to be
Or standing in the brand new dress I bought
'Cause I thought it was gonna be me
Shoulda told you, shoulda told you
Only got myself to blame
Shoulda kissed you, shoulda kissed you
Now it's too late
Guess it's too late
I really thought it was gonna be me, yeah
And I don't know what hurts the worst
Me alone or you with her
Or all the time I wasted on the things we never were
Or the way her hand was in your hand
Like I wanted mine to be
Or standing in the brand new dress I bought
'Cause I thought it was gonna be me
I really thought it was gonna be me
I really thought it was gonna be me
I really thought it was gonna be me
I really thought it was gonna be me

Muy linda La cancion y esa voz dulce
I love , wonderfull
The lyrics are wonderful and so relatable :(((
hello I’m Korean fan of your song! I’m so glad cause i can hear your music and watch your mv. Also, i really like your another song like Just in case🌷 Thank you for making your music! keep going🙏🏻🙏🏻
here before millions
Just discovered this song 3 months ago & I was immediately addicted to it. This is one of those songs that you can listen to endlessly, on repeat. This is also one of those underrated songs that make you wonder why you never heard it before.
For any Taylor swift fans does This not remind you of Speak now/Red era?
I love you 😍 ugh that voice💕
heard this song while i was shopping at one department store in Brunei and i shazamed it right away coz i fell in love at first listen 💛
you'll become big someday girl because you deserve it! 😘
Am really enjoying this song! Shared it!
Love Cath McGrath, she is going to go far!
I love your music so much!
"BRAZIL-SP" ÓTIMO"
Perhaps she hasn't met the right country boy yet 😂 😂
Can't watch this due to how laggy it gets, but amazing song anyway Catherine!
when i heard this on radio i was so sure this was taylor swift
whoever you got to do the drums did a great job
Awesome looking music video :).
I adore your music. Its great to see an Irish country musician who sounds like a nashville star. If you ever go to america we will never see you again.
Beautifull song, listening from argentina!
Ur so pretty and so talented! Love this song :)
Omg , can I stay here forever
Great song 👍👍👍 🤟🤟🤟
This has been stuck in my head all day. You remind me of Kelsea Ballerini! From one Irish singer/songwriter to another, I love this song <3
like Kelsea but i love Catherine!
her face is combined with anna hathaway and bella thorne vibes with some taylor swift voices by the way
but she is another level. keep it up.
greetings from Indonesia.
I think she looks a lot like a mix Cassadee Pope and Chyler Leigh.
amazing 😍
Ah typical somebody gets your hopes up and then it's nah I don't want you anymore, happened to me so many times, each time it was never meant to happen anyway but there's always someone else, something else and another direction....,
The quiet Musician I’m sorry this has happened you
Star of the County Down, Northern Ireland
